Qualifying countries

The 2002 FIFA World Cup, the 17th staging of the World Cup, was held in South Korea and Japan from May 31 to June 30. The two countries were chosen as hosts by FIFA in May 1996. For the first time in its history, the World Cup was organized by two countries. It was also the first World Cup held in Asia, and the first held outside Europe or the Americas. The tournament was won by Brazil for a record fifth time, beating Germany 2-0 in the final.

Qualification

Main article: 2002 FIFA World Cup qualification

The following 32 teams, shown by region, qualified for the 2002 FIFA World Cup. Of the 32 teams, defending 1998 FIFA World Cup champions France and co-hosts South Korea and Japan automatically qualified and did not have to play any qualification matches. (This was the last time that the defending champions automatically qualified.) Most watched event world wide. The number in brackets is the country's FIFA World Rankings as of June 2002, before the start of the tournament:

Summary

Further information: 2002 FIFA World Cup (match reports)

The format of the competition was similar to 1998: thirty-two teams were split into eight groups of four. The eight group winners and the eight group runners-up would qualify for the knockout competition. The main difference was that teams advancing from Groups A, C, F and H would be on one side of the bracket and play in Japan, while teams advancing from Groups B, D, E and G would be on the other side of the bracket and play in South Korea, until the third-place match and final. Therefore, the winner and runner-up from the same group could meet again in the semi-final (as did Brazil and Turkey). In 1998 and 2006, the winner and runner-up from the same group can only meet again in the final.

The tournament featured the unexpected early elimination of many of the most highly regarded teams, with France, Argentina and Portugal not surviving the first round. France, going home without scoring a goal, were the first defending champions to be eliminated in the first round since Brazil in 1966. For the very first time in the Cup's history, teams from each of Europe, North America, South America, Africa, and Asia reached the quarter-finals, including Senegal, who shocked France 1-0 in the opening match, and United States, who beat rivals Mexico 2-0 in the second round. Japan reached the second round of the tournament before losing to Turkey, while the other co-hosts South Korea went even further, first eliminating Italy in the second round, 2-1 in extra time, and then Spain in the quarter-finals on penalty kicks. South Korea became the first Asian team to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup, eclipsing the record of their North Korean counterparts when they reached the quarter-finals in 1966. Particularly notable were the impressive support of the "Red Devils", the generic name for South Korean football fans. During the tournament, the entire nation became a sea of red and was a driving force behind South Korea's advantage, with millions in the streets of Seoul and other cities enthusiastically cheering the team. However, the Koreans' progress was also mired in controversy, as many believed that they benefited from misjudgements by referees in the first two matches of the knockout phase.[1][2][3] In the Korea-Italy match a goal by Italy was disallowed for a controversial offside call, while Italy's star player Francesco Totti was sent off for diving by Ecuadorian referee Byron Moreno, who was later banned on charge of corruption.[4][5] In the following Korea-Spain match, the Spanish side had two apparently valid goals disallowed.[6] However, Korean fans believed that the protests were simply a case of Spain and Italy, two traditionally powerful teams, unable to take being defeated by Korea, a team with a poor World Cup history.[7] Just while resentment was arising in Spain and Italy for the perceived pro-Korean bias and in Korea for the European critics, FIFA general president Sepp Blatter finally had to take personal position by criticising the selection of the referees in the Korean matches and by asking for the best referees to be selected for the Korea-Germany semifinal:

What we have witnessed in past matches, and specifically matches where the home team of Korea was involved, I have to say I have difficulties understanding our referee committee concerning the designation of the referees and the linesmen[8].

However, even with all the upsets throughout the tournament, Brazil and Germany, first and second in terms of World Cup record, eventually made it to the final after beating Turkey and South Korea in the semi-finals respectively. The 2002 final was the first time Brazil and Germany had ever faced one another at a World Cup. Ronaldo, who suffered a famously poor final four years earlier, was the hero for the Seleção, scoring both goals of the match to give Brazil a 2-0 win. He ended up with a total of eight goals in the tournament to win the Golden Boot, the highest total in a World Cup since Gerd Müller scored ten times in 1970. German goalkeeper Oliver Kahn, who conceded only one goal in the tournament until he gave up the two goals in the final, won the Golden Ball as the tournament's best player, the first goalkeeper to win the award.

Knockout stage

The knockout stage was a single-elimination tournament involving the sixteen teams that qualified from the group stage of the tournament. There were four rounds of matches, with each round eliminating half of the teams entering that round. The successive rounds were: Round of 16, Quarter-finals, Semi-finals, Final. There was also a play-off to decide third/fourth place. For each game in the knockout stage, a draw was followed by thirty minutes of extra time (two fifteen minute halves); if scores were still level there would be a penalty shootout (at least five penalties each, and more if necessary) to determine who progressed to the next round. Scores after extra time are indicated by (AET), and penalty shoot outs are indicated by (PSO).

  • Brazil won all seven matches in the World Cup, and without the aid of penalties. They are the first team to win all their matches since Brazil did it in 1970.
  • The Round of 16 match between Mexico and the United States was the first to feature two nations from a single continental federation other than UEFA or CONMEBOL.
  • Hakan Şükür from Turkey scored the fastest goal ever in (10.8 seconds after kickoff) a World Cup finals match during the third-place game of against South Korea.
  • Brazil's Cafu became the first player to play three FIFA World Cup final matches consecutively.
  • This was the last World Cup with the golden goal rule still in use. From 2006 onwards, the full 30 minutes of extra time will be played to decide a winner.
