World Football Trivia

[rsw626]

Thought we should start a trivia thread for proper football. Here's how it works. Someone asks a question and whoever answers it has to post a new question. It can be from any League or International level. I'll start.

Which team was the first in the world to have it's game broadcast live. Bonus for when.

Alright, here's another question that I heard once and always stuck in my head. Who was the first bearded footballer to win the world cup?

 

[rsw626]

Without looking it up, I think it was one of the German players in either 70 or 74. Gerd Muller maybe?

 

[StuUKWI]

No, it was in the 80's. A South American.
