Despite the host nation's lack of a national top-level soccer league, the tournament broke the World Cup average attendance record with nearly 69,000 spectators per game, a mark that still stands today.[1][2] The total attendance of nearly 3.6 million for the final tournament remains the highest in World Cup history, despite the expansion of the competition from 24 to 32 teams (and from 52 to 64 games) in the 1998 World Cup.Brazil beat Italy 3¿2 in a penalty shootout after the game ended 0¿0 after extra time, the first World Cup final to be decided on penalties.

Bulgaria, Morocco and Mexico returned after missing the 1990 tournament. ____________________________________________________  Feel free to e-mail me with any questions.
