The 1966 FIFA World Cup, the eighth staging of the World Cup, was held in England from July 11 to July 30. England was chosen as hosts by FIFA in August 1960 to celebrate the centenary of the codification of football in England. It was a year of triumph for the host nation, as England won the final beating West Germany 4-2, giving them their first (and so far only) World Cup triumph. This success was ranked third of 100 Greatest Sporting Moments. Today, the 1966 World Cup is recognized as being an important event in the evolution of international football as a player originally from Africa (Portugal's Eusébio) finished as top goalscorer, a team from Asia (North Korea) scored one of the biggest upsets of all time, and the victory of an Anglophone nation gaining the sport larger-than-average notice in the United States and Australia.
