Let's go back to the time when football reigned only in Europe and more precisely in the United Kingdom at that time. In South America British emigrants played for pleasure and later local players feeling the principles and started to create football associations in Argentina, Brazil or Uruguay and this is how the bravest football in the world has been created so far (according to me). The first unofficial tournament took place in Argentina in 1910.Argentyna won. It was called Copa Centenario Revolución de Mayo.In 1916, (recognized for official in 1917) in South America, Argentina, the copa america tournament for the first time it was attended by four teams of Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil and Chile. They played a system in which everyone plays with each. The winner was decided in the final classification. In six games they scored 18 goals.Isabello Grodin became the king of the shooters with three goals. At that time, it was not believed that Latin Americans would catch up with Europeans because they had made football and the Americans were quite poor.In 1923, the first copa America tournament, The winner of these games, will go to the Olympic Games in Paris in 1924. The coach Leonardo de Lucca in the first match defeated Paraguay 2:0 goalscorers were Petrone and Scarone. in the second meeting "charrucas" won 2:1 Brazilians, Petrone and Cea entered the list of scorers.In the third match, Uruguay defeated the "albicelesdes" 2:0 and it was certain that they were going to the Olympic Games. Goals Petrone and Somma. In this tournament there were two shooters queens PEDRO PETRONE and VICENTE AGUIRRE had 3 goals. In 1924, at the turn of May and June Uruguayans defeated Yugoslavia 7:0. USA 3:0. France 1:5 In the semi-final Netherlands 2:1 and in the final Switzerland 3:0. In the same year at the turn of October and November the Championships were played South America. Uruguay beat 5:0 Chile and Paraguay 3:1. The third match against Albicelestes decided to win the tournament ,because it was a draw Uruguay won Argentina broke the 10 wins of Uruguay.The best PETRONE scorer with four goals, Argentina won next year, Uruguay did not participate.In 1926, Uruguay returned to Chile with hero HECTOR CASTRO, the Nacionalu Mondevideo player did not have a hand , but scored 6 goals for Uruguay, and the best scorer ARELLANO from Chile. Uruguay won all four matches with Chile 3:1 Argentina 2:0 with Bolivia 6:0 and Paraguay 6:1 tournament in Peru, Uruguay played without a few basic players who were mainly missing JOSE NASAZZI. After two victories from Peru 0:4 and Bolivia 9:0 (THIS IS BIGGEST WIN, OFFICIAL) time came to Argentina, unfortunately, "albicelestes" broke a series of 17 games without defeat, they won 3: 2.At the Olympic Games in Amsterdam. Three teams came from South America in addition to the defenders of the title and winners of Copa America. Chile and Argentina went with Uruguay. Chile has already dropped out in the preliminary round with Portugal 4:2 (2:2). In the semifinals of Argentina she defeated Egypt 6:0 (3:0), and Uruguay beat Italy 3:2 (3:1). The final of June 10 was 1:1 (1:1,1:0) ET. On June 13 the match was repeated and Uruguay won 2:1 (1:1). Interestingly, 250000 fans fought for tickets. The score from the top scorer is DOMINICO TARASCONI 11 goals. In 1929 Role was reversed Argentina won against Uruguay 2-0. The scorer scoring in the 12th edition of Copa America was Paraguayan AURELIO.
And we came to 1930 at the first World Championship in Uruguay. FIFA chose this country as the host of the tournament on May 18, 1929 as the state celebrating the anniversary of independence, an additional argument was the fact that Uruguay won the Olympic Games in Paris and Amsterdam. All matches were played in the capital of Mondevideo, 13 teams took part in the tournament. 7 from South America 4 from Europe and 2 from North America. the teams were divided into four groups, from which the winners went to the semi-final. the first two World Cup matches were played on July 13 at 15, France beat Mexico 4:1, the USA won Belgium 3:0, the first goal in the World Cup was LUCIEN LAURENT.The first group was promoted Argentina from the second group of Yugoslavia from the third group advanced to the semi-final Uruguay, and the last team from the US. In the third group against Peru and Romania, which played the first match in this group in this match, the referee showed the first red card of a Peruvian player, Romania used the advantage and won 3:1.Uruguay due to delays in the construction of ESTADIO CENTENARIO no played for the first five days in the first match beat Peru 1: 0, and in the second Romania 4: 0.In the semi-final, Agentyna beat USA 1: 0, and Uruguay beat Yugoslavia 6:1. PEDRO CEA scored 3 goals. The final took place at the stadium ESTADIO CENTENARIO, at noon there were 93,000 fans. .FIFA decided before the finals that in the first half of the match they will play an Argentinean ball, and in the second half the ball will be the host. In Uruguay there was one change compared to the semi-final HECTOR CASTRO was replaced by ANSELMO, who could not play because of illness. Referee of this meeting was JOHN LANGENUS who agreed under the warranty. One of the requirements was the ship's readiness not later than one hour after the match. The host opened the result of the meeting after the shot Pablo Dorado, the guests equalized eight minutes later thanks to CARLOS PEUCELLE, before GUILLERMO STABILE, who ran the scoring of goal scorers gave Argentina lead. After the break Uruguay gradually began to take control of the pitch, JOSE PEDRO CEA ten minutes later gave a draw to Uruguay, and IRIARTE gave a lead at 3: 2, before the end victory sealed HECTOR CASTRO 4: 2.Uruguay became the first official world champion in football. JULES RIMET handed the cup to the head of the Uruguay Federation RAUL JUDE. A day later, a national day was organized. BUT THERE IS NO GREAT TEAMS WITHOUT A GREAT FOOTBALL. SUCH AS (JOSE PEDRO CEA ,, EMPATATOR ") (JOSE LEONARDO ANDRADE" LA MARAVILLA NEGRA ") (HECTOR CASTRO," EL DIVINO MANCO ") (JOSE NASAZZI, MARISCAL PARA SIEMPRE). During these times Uruguay was undoubtedly the best team in the world.
