Nope, Italy's first foray into the World Cup when they beat the US 7-1 on their way to winning the trophy on home soil in 1934. They also won in 1938 and due to the war they didn't lose a World Cup game until 1950.

I'm taking a right bloody shot in the dark here, but, I think it was Yugoslavia.

Badweather Fan · 20/03/2003, 2:33 PM

I know only a couple of countries made the 3 month(?) boat trip, Yugoslavia, Spain and probably Hungary went with the British teams but i'll guess at France.

You're obviously starting to get into trouble already, and seeing as you're from Limerick and not Cork, I'll give you a clue. The aftermath became known as the "Hampden Park Riot", only one of the most famous riots in the history of British soccer.
