🕺 To celebrate #2YearsToGo until the Qatar 2022 final, let's look back at some memorable #WorldCup finals through the years, shall we?

📽 We start in 1950 when @Uruguay won the 'Maracanazo' 🏆✨

🇺🇾 Take it away, @DiegoLugano

🎞 Let's head to 1954 and 'The Miracle of Bern'

🇩🇪 West Germany defeated Hungary and pulled off one of the biggest upsets in #WorldCup history, with a little help from their boots 👟

🎥 4 years later a guy called @Pele became the youngest goalscorer in a World Cup final (17 years and 249 days)

🇧🇷 Brazil beat Sweden 5-2 at Rasunda Stadium in Solna to win their first #WorldCup trophy 🏆

📽 Brazil defended their title at Chile 1962, with three unanswered goals in the final after Czechoslovakia had opening the scoring

🇧🇷 Vava scored the last goal of the day to become the first player to score in two #WorldCup finals

🎥 1966 was all about the Three Lions 🦁🦁🦁

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 On home soil, @TheGeoffHurst led @England past West Germany 4-2 after extra time and became the first player to score a hat-trick in a #WorldCup final

📺 Mexico 1970 was the first #WorldCup broadcast in colour & Brazil proved why they were the best in the world 🏆

🇧🇷 Brazil beat Italy 4-1 in the final thanks to @Pele, Gerson, Jairzinho, Carlos Alberto, Rivelino, Tostao, Clodoaldo & the list goes on...

📺 The 10th #WorldCup went to West Germany

🇩🇪 Maier, Beckenbauer, Vogts, Breitner, Overath, Muller & @DFB_Team_EN defeated Cruyff, Neeskens, Rensenbrink, Krol, Haan & The Netherlands 2-1 on home soil at the Olympiastadion in Munich

🇦🇷 Four years later, it was all about @Argentina as the Netherlands fell at the final hurdle once again

✌️ For the second consecutive #WorldCup the hosts triumphed

🏆 ¡Argentina Campeon!

⏪ @osvaldooardiles relives it here

🇮🇹 At Spain 1982, the late Paolo Rossi, who sadly recently passed away, became an @azzurri legend forever as he led Italy past West Germany to secure their first #WorldCup victory since 1938

🏆 Here's Rossi sharing his memories from that monumental day

🇦🇷 Mexico 1986 was Diego Maradona's #WorldCup

🏆 Here's the legend himself reliving the day his dream came true

🏆 After losing two #WorldCup finals in a row, it was third time's a charm for @DFB_Team_EN as they edged holders Argentina 1-0 in the Italy 1990 final thanks to Andreas Brehme's penalty 🇩🇪

🎊 At USA 1994 it was party time for Brazil at the Rose Bowl 🏟

🇧🇷 They had to wait 24 years since their last triumph, but it was worth it as they added a fourth star to the @CBF_Futebol crest ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

📼 Four years later, @equipedefrance won their first #WorldCup and they did it at home at the Stade de France against the holders Brazil

🇫🇷 @marceldesailly, take it from here 🏆

🇧🇷 Brazil are 🔙

🏆 They didn't have to wait as long as they had in 1994 as @Ronaldo and his dodgy haircut lifted the #WorldCup trophy at the International Stadium Yokohama at Korea/Japan 2002

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @CBF_Futebol

🏆 "It almost doesn't seem real that you have it in your hands."

🇮🇹 @Pirlo_official & the @azzurri lifted the #WorldCup trophy in Berlin at Germany 2006 after a dramatic penalty shoot-out against France in the final

📀 South Africa 2010 was one of firsts

🇪🇸 It was the first #WorldCup to be held in Africa and Spain lifted their first trophy 🏆

😱 @andresiniesta8's goal in the 116th minute won it all for La Roja 🔴

📲 Four years later in Brazil, @DFB_Team_EN won their fourth #WorldCup trophy 🏆

🇩🇪 @MarioGoetze relives that famous night at the iconic Maracana in Rio de Janeiro

⭐️⭐️ Two decades after their first triumph, @equipedefrance put the second star on their crest

🏟 An exhilarating #WorldCup final at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow saw @AntoGriezmann, @paulpogba, @KMbappe & Co defeat maiden finalists @HNS_CFF

❓ Which nation will write their name in the #WorldCup history books next?

🏟 We'll find out on 18 December 2022 at Lusail Stadium in Doha
