World
Cup 1982 Final Tournament
13 June to 11 July 1982 in Spain
 The 1982 World Cup Finals, the 12th FIFA
World Cup, was held in Spain from 13 June to 11 July. Spain was chosen
as hosts by FIFA in July 1966. This tournament was marked by a series of
great matches and is widely regarded as the second-best ever after the 1970
tournament. This was also the first World Cup to feature 24 teams, an
expansion from 16 teams in previous tournaments.
The most surprising absences from the
finals were those of 1974 and 1978 runners-up Netherlands, North America's
power Mexico, and to a lesser extent 1974 and 1978 participant Sweden.
England, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, and the U.S.S.R. were back in the Finals
after a 12-year absence. Yugoslavia were also back after missing the 1978
tournament. Algeria, Cameroon, Honduras, Kuwait, and New Zealand all
participated in the World Cup for the first time.
