Handpicked football quizzes we know you'll love

More players will write their name in the history books as we approach the end of World Cup 2026, but we'll save the quiz on this summer's tournament for another day. Fortunately, we have plenty more quizzes designed to test your awareness of the icons who have defined the grandest stage on Earth and the teams they represented – courtesy of Kwizly.

We're taking it right back to 1966 as we ask you to name the England XI that beat West Germany 4-2 in that famous final at Wembley 60 years ago. Unfortunately for Three Lions fans, that game is England's only appearance in a World Cup showpiece. France, meanwhile, have reached four of them since 1998 - so can you name every France player to have played in a World Cup final?

When it comes to World Cup icons, certain names always spring to mind, but can you remember the best player at each tournament? If you think you can, have a go at naming every Golden Ball, Silver Ball and Bronze Ball winner at the World Cup. The chances are that those players will have represented the most successful teams in the tournament's history. We all know the likely suspects there, so can you name the top 40 teams in the World Cup all-time table...in order?
