Football quiz time – and this one’s a classic.

We’re fast-approaching 100 years of the World Cup, with the very first edition of the greatest show on Earth coming in 1930 – and with qualification well under way for next year’s tournament, we want you to name all 22 previous winners.

But there’s a twist – we don’t just want you to name every country to have won it but to do so in order. There’s just five minutes on the clock, so get cracking – and tell us how many you got in the comments.

Now, as your football education continues, we’ve prepared a new batch of challenges, delivered to you, courtesy of Kwizly, that delve into specific club legends, individual accomplishments, and the pioneering women’s game.

We begin with a tough question that focuses on the elite women of the national side: see if you can name every England women’s player with more caps than Millie Bright? This is a serious list of Lionesses legends who built the foundation for the current era of success. We then pivot back to the men’s Premier League and one of the most fundamental challenges of all: name the top 100 scorers in Premier League history.

From the domestic game, we travel to Italy to examine a tactical masterpiece. Can you name the Jose Mourinho Inter side that held off Barcelona in 2010? Following that, shift your focus to the pure statistics of goal-getting: name the 25 highest-scoring players across Europe in 2024.
