1966 World Cup England’s first title
England's national team won the 1966 World Cup, which they hosted on their homeland, after defeating West Germany 4-2 in the final after extra time. The tournament featured exciting events, including the theft of the trophy before the event began, which was eventually found by a dog named Pickles. Despite numerous changes and surprises—such as the absence of some major teams and injuries to Brazil's star Pelé, who was injured during the tournament—the matches were played at Wembley Stadium without alterations. This edition of the World Cup was also the last to feature the "Leo the Lion" mascot, before yellow and red cards were officially introduced.
