Explanation
The 2002 FIFA World Cup was held in South Korea and Japan. It marked the first time a World Cup was hosted by two countries, as well as the first time it took place outside of Europe and the Americas. The defending champions, France, were surprisingly eliminated in the opening rounds. Other teams, by contrast, delivered surprises; for the first time in World Cup history, teams from Europe, North America, South America, Africa, and Asia all reached the quarter-finals. Turkey defeated South Korea 3–2 in the match for third place, while Brazil won 2–0 against Germany in the final. Both goals in the final were scored by Ronaldo, who finished as the tournament's top scorer with eight goals.
