Who won the second World Cup?
The 1934 FIFA World Cup was the second edition of the FIFA World Cup. It took place in Italy from 27 May to 10 June 1934.
Thirty-two nations entered the competition, 16 teams would qualify for the final tournament. Reigning champions Uruguay boycotted the tournament as only four European teams had accepted their invitation to the 1930 tournament.
ITALY beat Czechoslovakia, 2–1, to become the second World Cup champions and the inaugural European team titleholders.
Just like the previous World Cup tournament, some matches were stirred up by ruction on the field. The most scandalous scenes were probably when the Hungarian players surrounded the referee after the match against Austria and blamed him for their defeat.
The Quarter-final between and Italy and Spain, was another extraordinary event, with a mix of extreme brutally (including several fights) with top class football. After a draw a replay would follow, which Spain lost. The Spanish goalkeeper Zamora was out of service in the second match due to all mean treatment from the Italians in the first match.
