Germany v Argentina: World Cup final champions not allowed to keep trophy - despite becoming three-time winners". The Telegraph. 6 July 2018. Archived from the original on 12 January 2021 . Retrieved 6 July 2018. Concerns about the safety of the Jules Rimet Trophy during World War II led to an unlikely destination for the much coveted prize for the duration of the conflict.

Though the Jules Rimet Trophy survived the World War unscathed, it nearly disappeared after being stolen ahead of the 1966 World Cup in England - the first time the tournament was being held at football’s spiritual home. The trophy stayed safe under Barassi’s bed until the World Cup returned after WWII in 1950 in Brazil. Barassi, who was integral to Italy hosting the 1938 edition, also spearheaded the operations for hosting the 1950 edition.As of 2022, twelve winners have been engraved on the base. The plate is replaced each World Cup cycle and the names of the trophy winners are rearranged into a spiral to accommodate future winners. [18] Eventual replacement [ edit ] Bellos, Alex (2003). Futebol: The Brazilian Way of Life. London: Bloomsbury. pp. 342. ISBN 0-7475-6179-6. The trophy presented to the men’s singles winner at the first Wimbledon Championship in 1877 cost 25 guineas and was given to the All England Croquet and Lawn Tennis Club by J. H. Walsh, editor of The Field. Six years later, it was retired when William Renshaw, a three-times winner, was permitted under rules to take it home with him. In 1886, Renshaw, having won another three consecutive competitions, also kept the new Challenge Cup. The weight of the FIFA World Cup trophy is 6.175kg. (13.61 pounds). The weight of the Jules Rimet trophy was 3.80 kilograms (8.38 pounds) The Brazilian team won the tournament for the third time in 1970, allowing them to keep the real trophy in perpetuity, as had been stipulated by Jules Rimet in 1930. [14] It was put on display at the Brazilian Football Confederation headquarters in Rio de Janeiro, in a cabinet with a front of bullet-proof glass. [15]

The trophy has the engraving "FIFA World Cup" on its base. After the 1994 FIFA World Cup, a plate was added to the bottom side of the trophy where the names of winning countries are engraved, names therefore not visible when the trophy is standing upright. The original trophy is now permanently kept at the FIFA World Football Museum in Zurich, Switzerland. It only leaves there when it goes on its FIFA World Cup Trophy Tour. It is present at the Final draw for the next World Cup, and on the pitch at the World Cup opening game and Final. [27] The FIFA World Cup Trophy Tour was inaugurated for the 2006 FIFA World Cup competition. [28]Many experts believe the new trophy is hollow. According to them, if it were solid gold, the trophy would weigh 70–80 kilograms (150–180 lb) and would be too heavy for the winning nation to lift.

The FIFA World Cup trophy, since its inception, has been the object of desire for every football-playing nation in the world, more than 200 of them currently, and their epic struggles on the field to win it has produced some memorable moments. It remains the Three Lions’ only World Cup win to date and Queen Elizabeth II herself presented the trophy to Sir Bobby Moore. The word trophy derives from the Greek tropaios, meaning ‘for defeat’ and, traditionally, they were a mark of victory in battle; soldiers in Ancient Greece hung captured arms and standards on trees to resemble a warrior. At the first Olympic Games, winners were presented with laurel wreaths, but the Ancient Romans handed out vases, shields and silver cups at local games and, from the 17th century, chalices were handed out to winners of sporting events in the New World. Following England’s success in 1966, the FA had a replica of the Jules Rimet Trophy made to use in exhibitions instead of the real one. However, the English Football Association was prohibited by FIFA from doing so. When the FA returned the original trophy in 1970, the replica was put away for years.
