allnationsca is right, the first match of the first World Cup (Uruguay 1930) was France x Mexico, in the Pocitos stadium in Montevideo on July 13th 1930. France won 4x1. USA x Belgium (3x0) took place on the same day, but according to FIFA France x Mexico was the opening match of the 1930 WC.\n\nThe Uruguay x Argentina (4x2) that other people mentioned was the 1930 WC final (and so the first WC final), on July 30th 1930.

HI!  I hope this helps:\n\nThe first ever World Cup Final was played at the Centenario Stadium, Montevideo, which is the capital of Uruguay, on July 30th, 1930. A seemingly innocuous controversy overshadowed the build-up to the match as the teams disagreed on who should provide the match ball, forcing FIFA to intervene and decree that the Argentine team would provide the ball for the first half and the Uruguayans would provide their own for the second. The game ended 4-2 to Uruguay (who had trailed 2-1 at half time) who added the title World Cup Winners to the already prestigious mantle of Olympic Champions, as Jules Rimet presented the World Cup Trophy, which was later to be named after the man himself. Only one player from that final, Francisco Varallo (who played as a striker for Argentina), is still alive today.
