From the 1930 World Cup to the Qatar World Cup, the trajectory of the football

Dark suit jacket and baggy pants stuck in high black socks, the Belgian referee Jean Langenus advances in the center of the Centenario stadium in Montevideo, a ball stuck under each arm. For the first World Cup final, on July 30, 1930, Uruguay and Argentina each brought their own ball and each intends to try its own. Faced with this problem, the ingenious Langenus chooses a compromise. He plays the first half with the ball from Argentina, which leads 2-1 at the break. The second is disputed with that, heavier, of the Uruguayan team. The latter chained three goals and won 4 to 2!
