Brazil, the only nation to appear in every World Cup, has five championships.如果阿根廷第四次夺冠，他们本将以4座冠军与德国和意大利并列历史第二位。巴西队则以5座冠军领跑——巴西也是唯一一支参加了每一届世界杯的国家。This year's World Cup was the first time three countries — the United States, Canada and Mexico — have co-hosted the tournament, with games in 16 cities. It was also the first time the field had been expanded to 48 teams.本届世界杯是首次由三个国家——美国、加拿大和墨西哥——联合主办，比赛在16座城市举行。这也是世界杯首次扩军至48支球队。Japan and South Korea co-hosted in 2002.此前2002年世界杯由日本和韩国联合主办。The next World Cup in 2030 will again see three host countries — Spain, Portugal and Morocco.2030年世界杯将由西班牙、葡萄牙和摩洛哥三个国家联合主办。knocked out /nɒkt aʊt/淘汰favorites /ˈfeɪvərɪts/夺冠热门draw /drɔː/平局shot on goal /ʃɒt ɒn ɡəʊl/射正saves /seɪvz/扑救back-to-back /bæk tə bæk/卫冕，连续夺冠
