THis is a tough question to answer, considering the WC is made up of the BESt of the BEST, however there have been some missfires.  \n\nMy answer:  \nZaire in 1974.  Lost all 3 games, 0 goals for, 14 against.\n\nScores: \nLost 2-0 to Scotland\nlost 9-0 to Yugoslavia\nLost 3-0 to Brazil

Italy vs Brazil! game was goalless and went into penalties! Roberto Baggio missed the penalty and Brazil won the World Cup!\n\nNNNNOOOOOOOO!!!! I've been depressed ever since!

Brazil is not the best team.  They are one of the strongest.  They didn't look incredilbe against Croatia.  With all that talent, they should have won 3-0.

I have to say Olympiakos too.They suck.
847586
Portugal because I think we tried our hardest (except the France vs Portugal game, that was pathetic!) we should hav at least gotten into the finals!!! FORCA PORTUGAL

1970 is the most common answer for this question. It included Pele, Garrincha and Zagalo. There's even an Adidas sweater that says: "The greatest Ever" with a picture of that team on it. I never saw them play but the older generation swears by them. \n\nI liked the 82 team, even though they never won. Zico, Socrates, Junior, etc...\n\nThe 2006 team is also stacked. Brazil proves to be a strong soccer force every world cup. But there will never  be a player like Pele.

Can't choose one because they are all wrong.  The World Cup was first held in Uruguay and won by Uruguay of the contries listed above only Brazil even participated.\n\nUruguay - 1930

Long before Holland, we have to consider Czechoslovakia(now the Czech republic), who lost the 1934 Finals to Italy and in 1962 to Brazil.\n\nBut it was the Mighty Magyars, perhaps as the best team never to have won it. They lost in 1938 to Italy, but in 1954, they were the best team in the world. However, the rain and Adi Dassler's (Founder of Adidas) boots, which the Germans changed to midway through at 0-2 down, to get a better grip, that helped them overcome the elements and eventually Hungary, to win 3-2.

Italy. They, unlike Argentina and Spain, improved as the competition progressed. Germany (surprisingly entertaining) were the unluckiest team. But luck plays little part in sport.

France clearly played the better game in 1998.  One word, Zidane.  If anything, Brazil had the easiest group.  They were lucky to beat Holland in the semifinal.  They shouldn't have even been in the final game.\n\nI do not think Germany has enough good players to get to the Final.  They will lose to Holland in the semis and Holland will beat Brazil in the final.  Germany will beat Spain (easiest path in the whole cup until they play Brazil in the other semi) in the third place game.

to all the Iran supporters I watched the game too Croatia should have killed you!!! You scored two goals from two shoots ( terrible defense mistakes too ) My choice if not Croatia, Ukraine with Shevchenko leading them far away ( it is their first World Cup )

According to the FIFA World Rankings, American Samoa are the worst country in the World, ranked 205th. With regards to the World Cup, Nigeria (11th) are the highest-ranked team who will not be competing, while I think Togo (61st) are the lowest-ranked team to be going to Germany.
