[edit] Host selection

Main article: FIFA World Cup hosts

Colombia was originally chosen as hosts by FIFA in June 1974. However, the Colombian authorities declared in November 1982 that they could not afford to host the World Cup under the terms that FIFA demanded. Mexico was selected on May 20, 1983 as the replacement hosts, beating the bids of Canada, and the United States (who eventually hosted the 1994 World Cup), and became the first nation to host two World Cups. This second World Cup in Mexico came only 16 years after the first one in 1970. A severe earthquake in September 1985, eight months before the tournament, cast doubt over Mexico's ability to organize the event; however, the stadiums were not affected and it was decided to go ahead with the preparations.

As 1986 had been declared the International Year of Peace by the United Nations, the advertising boards of all the stadia displayed the emblems of FIFA and the United Nations along with the legend "Football for Peace - Peace Year".

For the design of the logo an unofficial motto was adopted: " El Mundo Unido por Un Balón" (The world united by a ball)

[edit] Qualification

Main article: 1986 FIFA World Cup qualification

Three teams qualified for the World Cup for the first time: Canada, Denmark and Iraq. Canada clinched its spot after winning the final match against Honduras 2-1 in St. John's, Newfoundland, with the Hondurans wearing tuques and gloves on the field due to the cold weather. Iraq played all matches on neutral ground due to Iran-Iraq war.

[edit] Summary

[edit] First Round

The format of the competition changed from 1982: 24 teams qualified, divided into six groups of four (A through F). The top two teams and the four best third place finishers from the six groups advanced to the knockout round of 16 teams.

The first round of the finals produced some surprise success stories. Morocco topped Group F after holding both Poland and England to goalless draws, and then pulling off a shock 3-1 win over Portugal. By doing so, they became the first African team to reach the second round. England looked to be in trouble after losing 1-0 to Portugal and then drawing with the Moroccans. But in their last first-round game, a first-half Gary Lineker hat-trick helped them beat Poland 3-0. Poland had previously beaten Portugal, and in the end the Portuguese were the only team from Group F to be eliminated in the first round.

The other surprise stars of the first round were Denmark, who stormed through Group E, highly dubbed the group of death with a 100 per cent record. They beat Scotland 1-0 in their first game, then hammered Uruguay 6-1, with Preben Elkjær Larsen hitting a hat-trick. But Denmark's most impressive result were when they beat one of the favourites to win the tournament, West Germany, 2-0 thanks to a Jesper Olsen penalty and a goal from John Eriksen. After losing to Denmark, Scotland took the lead against West Germany thanks to a Gordon Strachan goal, but the West Germans fought back to win 2-1. And after a violent 0-0 draw against Uruguay, the Scots were eliminated from the tournament. West Germany went through to the second round with the strength of a win and a 1-1 draw with Uruguay, who also qualified on just two draws. Beyond that, the first-round results went largely as expected. Argentina and world champions Italy drew 1-1 when they clashed in Group A where Diego Maradona shined. The group's other results, a 3-1 victory over South Korea and a 2-0 win over Bulgaria, left Argentina as group winners, with Italy barely scraping through thanks to a close 3-2 victory over South Korea with a dour Bulgarian side joining them thanks to two draws.

Host Mexico and Paraguay did manage to push Belgium into third place in Group B, although Belgium's three points saw them safely through to the second round while Iraq went out of the tournament.

The Soviet Union and France dominated Group C, with the Soviets topping the group on goal difference after hammering Hungary 6-0 and beating Canada 2-0 while the French picked up 1-0 and 3-0 victories over Canada and Hungary, respectively. The Hungarians defeated Canada 2-0 but one win wasn't enough to see them through while Canada went out pointless and scoreless.

Brazil coasted through in Group D, picking up maximum points, with Spain coming second. Northern Ireland rued missed chances against Algeria in their opening 1-1 draw and were up against it after that with games against Spain and Brazil next. They fought hard against Spain but went down 2-1, and against Brazil they were simply outclassed, 3-0 while Algeria went out of the tournament in similar fashion.

[edit] Second Round and Quarterfinals

The match of the second round was the seven-goal thriller between Belgium and the Soviet Union, in which the Soviets' Igor Belanov scored a hat-trick and still ended up on the losing side. The game was tied at 2-2 after 90 minutes, and in extra time Stephane Demol and Nico Claesen put Belgium 4-2 up. Belanov scored from the penalty spot with nine minutes remaining, but neither he nor any of his team-mates could find a fourth goal for the Soviet Union. Two of Europe's great football nations met in Mexico City, where France, the European Champions, ended Italy's reign as World Champions with a 2-0 victory thanks to goals from Michel Platini and Yannick Stopyra. In the rematch of the 1930 World Cup final, Argentina just edged out South American champions Uruguay in Puebla thanks to a 42nd minute strike from Pedro Pasculli. The all-South American affair was notable for a Diego Maradona's disallowed goal.

Perhaps the most surprising scoreline of the second round came from Queretaro, where Denmark, who were billed as dark horses for the tournament, were eliminated although there was nothing gracious about their exit as they went from a 1-0 lead to a 5-1 battering against Spain; key player Frank Arnesen was suspended for the game after being sent off against West Germany in their last group match, for taking a swipe at German playmaker Lothar Matthaeus. The Danes scored first, with a Jesper Olsen penalty, but they were then taken apart by a devastating performance from Butragueño of Spain, who scored four of his team's five goals. The other maulings of the second round came from England and Brazil. England progressed to the quarter-finals fairly comfortably when they saw off Paraguay 3-0 while Brazil brushed aside Poland 4-0. West Germany had a much harder time getting past Morocco, for whom goalkeeper Ezaki Zaki had an outstanding game in goal. Morocco held out until the 87th minute, when Lothar Matthaeus finally managed to score the only goal of the game. Mexico kept the home supporters happy with a 2-0 win over Bulgaria.

The most memorable quarter-final match saw France face the other three-time world champion, Brazil in Guadalajara. Brazil were well on top in the early stages, and Careca put them one up after 18 minutes. But then, five minutes before half-time, France drew level when Michel Platini converted a cross from Dominique Rocheteau. Brazil had a great chance to regain the lead in the second half when Branco was fouled by French 'keeper Joel Bats in the penalty area. Zico got up to take the kick, but Bats made amends for his foul by saving Zico's penalty.

The match went to extra time, and France had the better of the extra half-hour. But no more goals were scored, and so it was time for a penalty shoot-out. Surprisingly, Socrates failed with the first kick for Brazil. The next six penalties were all converted, and then Platini fired over the bar. Brazil were back on level terms - but not for long. Julio Cesar struck the post with his penalty, and Luiz Fernandez then scored to put France through 4-3 on penalties.

Two other quarter-finals were also decided on penalties. Jan Ceulemans put Belgium ahead against Spain in the 35th minute, but Spanish substitute Senor equalised with five minutes to go. No more goals were scored in extra time, and Belgium won the shoot-out 5-4. West Germany and Mexico drew 0-0 after extra time, and the West Germans eliminated the hosts 4-1 on penalties.

The quarter-final between Argentina, the last South American representative left, and England was unforgettable because of the two totally different goals scored by Diego Maradona: the first was scored illegally, as he punched the ball into the goal past England goalkeeper Peter Shilton. The referee did not see the foul and the goal was given as valid. After the game, Maradona claimed the goal was scored "A bit with the head of Maradona and another bit with the hand of God"; it was known as the "The Hand of God" goal. For his second goal, voted "Goal of the Century" in 2002 on the FIFA website, Maradona dribbled half the length of the field past five English players before scoring. In Argentina, the game was not just seen as revenge for the Falklands War but mostly for what they still see as the unfair game in the 1966 FIFA World Cup.

[edit] Semifinals, third-place match, and final

In the semi-finals, Andreas Brehme put West Germany 1-0 ahead against France in the ninth minute, but the outcome of a tense game remained in doubt until two minutes from time when Rudi Voller made it 2-0, and West Germany were in the final for the second World Cup in succession. In the other semi-final, Maradona struck twice in the second half as Argentina beat Belgium 2-0. Belgium went on to lose the third-place match to France 2-4.

Jose Brown put Argentina one up midway through the first half of the final, and when Jorge Valdano scored a second for the South Americans in the 55th minute, Argentina looked to be strolling to victory. But then West Germany staged a spirited comeback. Karl-Heinz Rummenigge pulled one back in the 74th minute, and six minutes later Rudi Voller hit the equaliser. The momentum now seemed to be with West Germany - but with seven minutes remaining, a brilliant pass from Maradona gave Jose Burruchaga the chance to score the winner for Argentina. Eight years on from their home triumph, Argentina regained the world title for the second time, and 30 million people in Argentina celebrated in the streets after the final victory. Maradona was the Golden Ball winner as the best player of the tournament, while Gary Lineker of England won the Golden Boot as the leading scorer of the World Cup with six goals.

[edit] Mascot

The official mascot of this World Cup was Pique, a jalapeño pepper, characteristic of Mexican cuisine, with a moustache, a sombrero, and Mexican football team colours. Its name comes from picante, Spanish for spicy peppers and sauces.

[edit] Other facts

Trivia sections are discouraged under Wikipedia guidelines. The article could be improved by integrating relevant items and removing inappropriate ones.

• During the Group E game between Uruguay and Scotland, José Batista of Uruguay was sent off after less than one minute of play, a World Cup record that still stands.
• During the match between Brazil and Spain, the Spanish team had a shot that was later proved by television slow motion replays to have bounced behind the goal line after hitting the crossbar. No goal was awarded, as none of the match officials could be sure that the ball had crossed the line, and Brazil won the match 1-0.
• The Portuguese team, making their first appearance in 20 years, went on strike (in the Saltillo Affair) during the competition. Players refused to train between their first and the second games (against England and Poland) and were eliminated after a loss to Morocco in the final group match.
