Welcome to the Takis-on-Line 2002 FIFA World Cup (tm) site. The tournament lived upto its reputation of being the most unpredictable ever with several pre-tournament favourites crashing out during the early stages. In the end, two of the most succesful teams in the history of the competition reached the final, even though they were not among the favourites before the competition started. Brazil and Germany fought out an enthralling final with flair prevailing over teamwork, as Brazil ran out 2-0 winners with two goals from Ronaldo, who put behind his personal nightmare of four years ago. On this site you will find a wealth of information about the final phase of the tournament such as match reports of every game, venue, referee, team and player details including more than 700 photographs. All the results of the qualifying competition are also available as well as a complete history of past tournaments.
