The first Football World Cup was staged in 1930. The games were awarded to Uruguay as they were the Olympic champions at the time and since they were celebrating the centenary of their independence. As well as being the first ever hosts, Uruguay also became the inaugural champions, beating Argentina in the final, 4-2.\n\nThe first World Cup was the only one without qualification; teams were invited. Due to the long and costly trip across the Atlantic, very few European teams chose to participate; two months before the tournament started, no team from that continent had officially entered. FIFA's president, Jules Rimet, intervened, along with the Uruguayan government, which promised to pay the travel expenses of any travelling European team. Eventually four teams made the three-week sea trip: Belgium, France, Romania, and Yugoslavia.\n\nThe thirteen teams were drawn into four groups, with all the games taking place in the Uruguayan capital, Montevideo. Since there were no qualifying games, the opening two matches of the tournament were also the first ever World Cup games, taking place simultaneously on July 13th; France beat Mexico 4-1, while the USA defeated Belgium 3-0 at the same time in Estadio Gran Parque Central. France's Lucien Laurent was the scorer of the first ever World Cup goal. The USA's Bert Patenaude scored the first hat-trick in World Cup history, as his team beat Paraguay 3-0. The four eventual group winners, Argentina, Yugoslavia, Uruguay, and the USA, moved to the semifinals.\n\nThe two semi-final matches saw identical 6-1 scores, as Argentina beat the US and Uruguay defeated Yugoslavia. Because the traditional third-place playoff match was not established until 1934, the 1930 World Cup is unique in not having any games take place between the semi-finals and the Final as Yugoslavia refused to play the 3rd place play-off against the USA. [citation needed] However, some sources, notably the FIFA Bulletin from 1984, affirm that the match occurred (Yugoslavia - US 3-1). [1] This information has never been officially confirmed.\n\nThe first ever World Cup Final was played at the Centenario Stadium, Montevideo, on July 30th. 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.

Don't know who scored the goal.  But the first FIFA match was May 1, 1904.  The match was held in Brussels, Belgium.  The game was between Belgium and France.

I think this is what you mean...\n\nThe first World Cup was Uruguay 1930. The opening match was France VS Mexico. France won 4-1 and here's the scoring history:\n\nLAURENT Lucien (FRA) 19', LANGILLER Marcel (FRA) 40', MASCHINOT Andre (FRA) 42', CARRENO Juan (MEX) 68', MASCHINOT Andre (FRA) 86'.\n\nSo, Laurent from France scored the earliest (or the first?) goal in the history of World Cups.\n\nNow, the FASTEST goal in World Cup history... Hakan Sukur of Turkey scored the fastest goal in World Cup history in  2002 when he scored 11 seconds into the match against South Korea.

Here are the two best guesses that I have found are Lucien Laurent and Eugène Maës.\n\nLaurent made history in Uruguay by scoring the first ever World Cup goal: a volley in the 19th minute of a game against Mexico on July 13, 1930. France won the game 4-1, but lost their remaining group matches to Argentina and Chile, and were thus eliminated. Laurent was ruled out of the third game due to injury.  He was the only surviving member of the 1930 French team to see France lift the 1998 World Cup on home soil, and died seven years later at the age of 96.\n\n\nEugène Maës was the first true goalscorer for the French national team. With a great combat injury during World War I which obliged him to retire from professional football, Maës would certainly have been one of the best players for the tricolors, because in less than two years of his international career, he scored 15 goals in just 11 caps. His most glorious day remains March 17, 1912 in Turin, where, against Italy, after having arrived at 5 A.M., he scored a hat trick, and the French team defeated the Italians for the first time in their history, 4-3. The Red Star striker also holds another record with the blue shirt, thanks to the 5 goals he scored against Luxembourg in 1913, in an 8-0 victory. Only Thadée Cisowski would equal this accomplishment in 1956.

I hope this gives you enough info !!\n\nIn April 1950 Chelsea's Roy Bentley scored the goal against Scotland at Hampden that clinched the British Championship and with it a place in the World Cup Finals in Brazil. \n\nIt was England's first World Cup, having been outside FIFA for the tournaments of 1930, 1934 and 1938. They were one of the favourites. The long-awaited first World Cup Finals match was played on Sunday, 25 June at the famous Maracana in Rio de Janeiro. \n\nThe team was managed by Walter Winterbottom and the players who lined up against Chile were Bert Williams, Alf Ramsey, John Aston, Billy Wright (captain), Laurie Hughes, Jimmy Dickinson, Tom Finney, Wilf Mannion, Roy Bentley, Stan Mortensen and Jimmy Mullen. \n\nIt turned out to be a disappointing game, played in pouring rain before a crowd of just under 30,000. England's attack never got going; the Chilean forwards were lively but generally weak in front of goal. \n\nEngland's first ever World Cup goal was scored by the legendary Stan Mortensen, giving Chilean 'keeper Livingstone no chance with a firm header on 38 minutes. \n\nThree years later "Morty" scored a hat-trick for Blackpool in The FA Cup Final. Yes, the "Matthews Final". \n\nCarvallo struck the bar and "George" Robledo, who played for Newcastle United, hit a post with a free-kick as England were kept on their toes. Chile were more robust in the second half, with Winterbottom's side struggling to find any rhythm in their play. \n\nMidway through the second period England scored a decisive second. Mortensen sent Finney clear down the right and from his cross Mannion steered the ball just inside Livingstone's right-hand post. \n\nFour days later, in Belo Horizonte, England lost embarrassingly to the USA and failed to progress beyond the group stage in their first World Cup.

As for the first World Cup (1930) only 13 countries participated. It was held in Uraguay and there were no qualification matches - teams were merely invited to take part. Many european countries declined the invitation because of the travelling distance and transport facilities weren't as efficient as they are today. The top scorer was Guillermo Stábile of Argentina with 8 goals. The first scorer of a World Cup goal however was scored by Lucien Laurent, of France, in the 19th minute of their opening game. \n\nUraguay won the tournament.\n\nPrize money for the World Cup has recently been increased for the impending tournament. The winners of the tournament in Germany will walk away with 24.5 million Swiss francs (£10.7m), more than double the total for the 2002 World Cup, while every qualifying nation will pocket a minimum of seven million Swiss francs (£3m). Needless to say prize money increases the further the nation progresses through the tournament. Specific amounts awarded to each country will be known after the World Cup.
