Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, England and Uruguay have won the world cup of soccer?","appBody":"<p>I live in Spain at the moment and I can tell you they are football mad! All of the childrens heros are football players - often it is either Messi or Ronaldo. So it makes sense that they are good at football if it is the game of choice for loads of people from a young age.</p>\n<p>I imagine that it would be the same for these other countries that have won the world cup aswell. Some of it also comes down to funding, and where the government chooses to spend their money.</p>\n<p>I am from New Zealand and it is the equivalent with rugby (we are a small country but have won the last 2 world cups). This is because rather than football it is rugby that everyone plays from a young age.</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"f3kdpmguq","appParentAuthor":"mauricioflores","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
