Qualification

Main article: 1934 FIFA World Cup qualification

This World Cup was unique in that the reigning World Cup holders Uruguay declined an invitation to participate as a mark of defiance against the European snub from the previous World Cup in 1930, becoming the only holders not to compete in the following tournament. Another somewhat unique fact is that the hosts, Italy, had to qualify. Since 1938, the hosts have been given an automatic spot in the tournament. The 1934 FIFA World Cup was the first World Cup where the teams had to qualify, since the first edition in 1930 had no qualification rounds (the participating teams were invited by FIFA). ... Qualifying countries The 1930 FIFA World Cup was the first World Cup tournament ever staged. ... Qualifying countries The 1938 FIFA World Cup was the third staging of the World Cup, and was held in France from June 4 to June 19. ...


Only ten of the 32 entrants, and four of the 16 qualified teams, were from outside Europe. The last spot in the finals was contested between the United States and Mexico only three days before the start of the tournament in a one-off match in Rome, which the United States won.

Summary

The tournament was held in knockout format. Eight European teams: Austria, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland advanced to the quarterfinals.


In the quarterfinals, the first replayed match in the World Cup history took place, after Italy and Spain drew 1-1 after extra time. Italy won the replay 1-0, and then went on to beat Austria in the semifinals by the same score. Meanwhile, Czechoslovakia secured their place in the final by beating Germany 3-1.


The Stadium of the National Fascist Party was the venue for the final. With 70 minutes played, the Czechoslovakians were ahead 1-0. The Italians managed to score before the final whistle, and then added another goal in extra time to be crowned World Cup Winners. Stadio Nazionale PNF was a multi-use stadium in Rome, Italy. ...


Italian leader Benito Mussolini used the hosting of the World Cup to promote nationalism and his National Fascist Party. There was also controversy regarding refereeing decisions perceived to be in Italy's favour, such as during its win over Spain in the quarter-final (the Swiss referee Rene Mercet was subsequently banned by the Swiss FA on account of his partiality toward the host nation) and the final victory over Czechoslovakia, refereed by Swede Ivan Eklind. [1] Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini (July 29, 1883 – April 28, 1945) was the prime minister and dictator of Italy from 1922 until 1943, when he was overthrown. ... The National Fascist Party (Partito Nazionale Fascista; PNF) was an Italian party, created by Benito Mussolini as the political expression of Fascism (previously represented by groups known as Fasci; see also Italian fascism). ...
