The 1994 FIFA World Cup, the 15th staging of the FIFA World Cup, was held in the United States from June 17 to July 17, 1994. The United States was chosen as hosts by FIFA in July 1988. Brazil became the first nation to win four World Cup titles when they beat Italy 3-2 in a penalty shootout after the game ended 0-0 after extra-time, the first final to be decided by penalties. The average attendance for the tournament was 69,000 while the total attendance was 3.6 million. The 1994 World Cup holds the record for the highest attendance in World Cup history. It was also the highest-attended single sport sporting event in United States history.
A total of 52 games were played during the 1994 FIFA World Cup™ finals in the USA. The tournament provided us with memorable goals from Hagi (ROM) Owairan (KSA) and Klinsmann (GER). One of the most enduring images occurred when Baggio (ITA), Italy's hero in the previous rounds, handed the trophy to Brazil in the final following his missed penalty in the shoot-out.
