Favourite World Cup moment:

 

Nigeria coming back from a losing position twice to beat Spain 3-2 in the 1998 World Cup

 

 

Funniest World Cup moment:

 

Even though this was before I was born it would have to be when Mwepu Ilunga a player for Zaire ran out of a defensive wall to kick the ball away when Brazil were supposed to take a free kick during the 1974 World Cup.

 

In my lifetime I would say the red card that Alex Song got for elbowing a player in the back when Cameroon played Croatia in the 2014 World Cup.

 

 

Worst World Cup moment:

 

Luis Suarez blocking with his hands what would have been a winning goal for Ghana in the 2010 World Cup quarter final

 

 

Shock of the World Cup:

 

Germany beating Brazil 7-1 in the 2014 World Cup semi final

 

 

Controversial World Cup moment that you remember:

 

David Beckham getting sent off against Argentina in the 1998 World Cup

 

 

Favourite World Cup moment: Uruguay reaching the semi-finals in 2010

Funniest World Cup moment: Spain being the first team out of the 2014 World Cup after winning it the year before

Worst World Cup moment: England losing to Portugal in 2006. I was only 6 at the time so was screaming the street down :lol:

Shock of the World Cup: Germany 7-1 Brazil

Controversial World Cup moment that you remember: England being denied a goal against Germany when it clearly crossed the line

I will do the tournaments from my lifetime (1998 onwards)

 

 

Favourite World Cup moment: Of all the World Cup games I have watched live, I think my favourite would be Spain 1-5 Holland. A result nobody saw coming, a memorable goal from Van Persie, the dethroning of Spain (who had won the last three tournaments) and confirmation that the 2014 tournament would be better than 2010. Special mentions to: South Korea 2-1 Italy (2002), Brazil 1-1 Chile (2014), Argentina 0-1 England (2002) and USA 2-2 Portugal (2014).

 

Funniest World Cup moment: France's 2010 meltdown was very entertaining and the 7-1 was a globally-collective jaw-dropping moment but I couldn't stop laughing during England's 0-0 draw with Algeria in 2010. It was the moment it finally sunk in how fundamentally flawed English footballers are and the hypocrisy of the hype machine. I have never watched England in expectation again.

 

Worst World Cup moment: sitting through England's entire 2006 campaign - for sheer tedium.

 

Shock of the World Cup: 2002 was chock-full of them, but I don't remember too much about the tournament now. But South Korea and Turkey in the semi-finals, Senegal beating France in the opening game, the group-stage elimination of pre-tournament favourites France and Argentina (and dark-horses Portugal)... it can't be anything other than the aforementioned Korea 2-1 Italy game.

 

Controversial World Cup moment that you remember: It's a close one between Zidane's headbutt in 2006, Lampard's ghost-goal in Bloemfontein and Luis Suarez denying Ghana a place in the 2010 semi-finals with his handball (what was worse was his reaction after the missed penalty).
