World Cup Trivia

[persianbruin]

some questions are really hard for me, i'm just twenty and i've started to watch the world cup since 1998 even though i still remember watching italy brazil in 1994 and cryin because italy lost i was only 4 at the time.

BTW the 15) isn't it CAFU i'm not sure if he was there in 2006 or maybe Rivaldo but i believe it was cafu

I had tickets to that game but I was expecting germany to make it so I sold my ticket! well I also had an exam

All answers are off the top of my head with no cheating. I'm unsure about 8, 11 and 15.
Edit: I can see another player is (maybe also) correct for 15 but I won't post it as I read it on someone else's answer. Maybe mine is correct too?

[KC McElroy]

wooow KC i don't know if all your answers are good but you know a lot of things

That is correct. I am also very sexy.

its interesting that its been 2 decades that the top scorers of world cups dont score that many goals. before the tops scorers used to be like 6, 8 or 10 goals but now days its only a few. Shows how much the game has changed and its become more of a team effort. Last wc for ex, italy scored 13 goals by 11 different players.
