About this quiz
Part football quiz, part logic puzzle. Each clue places a cell by its World Cup record: titles, finals, tournaments played, hosting and knockout meetings. Only one arrangement fits them all.
- Any team with three or more men's World Cups could be in a cell, and no answer appears twice.
- The pool is every team with at least three men's World Cups, 1930 to 2026.
- West Germany counts as Germany and the Soviet Union as Russia; either name is accepted.
- A knockout meeting is any knockout match except a third place match; the 1950 final group had none.
