The '''2002 FIFA World Cup''' was the 17th staging of the [[FIFA World Cup]] which took place from 31 May to 30 June 2002 in [[South Korea]] and [[Japan]]. This world cup set a number of precedents. It was the first World Cup to be held in Asia. No previous World Cup was held on a continent other than Europe or the Americas. It was also the first World Cup to be jointly hosted by more than one nation. Finally, this was the last event to use the [[golden goal]] rule. [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]] won the tournament for a record fifth time, winning [[2002 FIFA World Cup Final|the final]] against [[German national football team|Germany]] 2–0.<ref>{{cite news|title=Brazil crowned world champions |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport3/worldcup2002/hi/matches_wallchart/germany_v_brazil/newsid_2067000/2067939.stm |date=30 June 2002 |publisher=BBC Sport |accessdate=27 March 2012 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/66UD7w04x?url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport3/worldcup2002/hi/matches_wallchart/germany_v_brazil/newsid_2067000/2067939.stm |archivedate=27 March 2012 |deadurl=no |df=dmy }}</ref> The victory meant Brazil qualified for the [[2005 FIFA Confederations Cup]] for the fifth time, representing the World.

The tournament had several upsets and surprise results which included the defending champions [[France national football team|France]] being eliminated in the group stage after earning a single point and second favourites [[Argentina national football team|Argentina]] also being eliminated in the group stage. Additionally, [[Turkey national football team|Turkey]] took third place and [[South Korea national football team|South Korea]] managed to reach the semi-finals, beating [[Spain national football team|Spain]], [[Italy national football team|Italy]] and [[Portugal national football team|Portugal]] en route. However, the most potent team at the tournament, Brazil, prevailed and they became the first and to date the only nation to win five World Cups, as well as the only team to win all their matches throughout the tournament.
==Host selection==
{{Main
South Korea and Japan were selected as hosts by FIFA on 31 May 1996. Initially, South Korea, Japan, and [[Mexico]] presented three rival bids. FIFA officials brokered a united bid between the two Asian countries shortly before the decision was made, and they were chosen unanimously in preference to Mexico.<ref>{{cite news |last=Jones |first=Grahame L. |date=1 June 1996 |title=A Political Football Lands in Japan and South Korea |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1996-06-01/sports/sp-10647_1_south-korea |work=[[The Los Angeles Times]] |accessdate=22 July 2017}}</ref> This was the first World Cup to be hosted by two countries, the second being the 2026 World Cup to be hosted by the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. The general secretary of South Korea's bidding committee, [[Song Young-shik]], stated that FIFA was interested in staging some matches in North Korea in order to aid [[Korean reunification]], but was ruled out.<ref>{{cite news |last=Jones |first=Grahame L. |date=5 June 1996 |title=North Korea Enters World Cup 2002 Mix |page=C4 |work=The Los Angeles Times |url=https://latimes.newspapers.com/clip/16185329/north_korea_and_2002_fifa_world_cup/ |via=[[Newspapers.com]] |accessdate=1 January 2018}} {{open access}}</ref>
At the time the decision was made, Japan had never qualified for a World Cup finals (although the Japanese did subsequently qualify for the 1998 competition). The only other countries to have been awarded a World Cup without previously having competed in a final tournament are Italy in 1934 and Qatar in 2022. (Uruguay hosted the first World Cup in 1930 so there was no prior tournament. They were defending Olympic champions from 1928).

==Qualification==
{{Main
A total of 199 teams attempted to qualify for the 2002 World Cup which qualification process began with the preliminary draw held in Tokyo on 7 December 1999. Defending [[1998 FIFA World Cup Final|champions]] [[France national football team|France]] and co-hosts [[South Korea national football team|South Korea]] and [[Japan national football team|Japan]] qualified automatically and did not have to play any qualification matches. This was the final World Cup in which the defending champions qualified automatically.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2001/nov/30/worldcupfootball2002.sport1|title=Fifa forces World Cup winners to qualify|work=[[The Guardian]]|date=30 November 2001|accessdate=6 March 2018}}</ref>
14 places were contested by [[UEFA]] teams (Europe), five by [[Confederation of African Football|CAF]] teams (Africa), four by [[CONMEBOL]] teams (South America), four by [[Asian Football Confederation|AFC]] teams (Asia), and three by [[CONCACAF]] teams (North and Central America and Caribbean). The remaining two places were decided by playoffs between AFC and UEFA and between CONMEBOL and [[Oceania Football Confederation|OFC]] (Oceania). Four nations qualified for the finals for the first time: [[China national football team|China]], [[Ecuador national football team|Ecuador]], [[Senegal national football team|Senegal]], and [[Slovenia national football team|Slovenia]]. As of 2018, this was the last time Republic of Ireland, [[Turkey national football team|Turkey]] and China qualified for a FIFA World Cup finals.
All seven previous World Cup-winning nations ([[Argentina national football team|Argentina]], [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]], [[England national football team|England]], [[France national football team|France]], [[Germany national football team|Germany]], [[Italy national football team|Italy]] and [[Uruguay national football team|Uruguay]]) qualified, the first time so many previous champions had been present at a finals tournament (all these nations had also appeared at the 1986 tournament, but France had not yet won the competition). Previously, the last world cup final tournament with all former champions present was the [[1970 FIFA World Cup|1970 edition]].

Before the draw, it was arranged that the last three teams in Pot B would be drawn into four groups which did not already contain two European teams and one would be left without a second European team. This was ultimately Group C. No group could contain more than two European teams, no unseeded South American team could be drawn with Brazil or Argentina and no unseeded Asian team could be drawn with South Korea or Japan.
France, as holders were automatically placed in Group A, South Korea were placed in Group D and Japan were placed in Group H. One of the two South American seeds (Brazil and Argentina) had to play in a group played in South Korea and the other had to play in a group played in Japan. In Pot C, China had to play in South Korea (either group A, B or C) which meant that the other Asian team in Pot C (Saudi Arabia) had to play in Japan (either group E, F or G). In Pot D, two or three African teams, and one or two CONCACAF teams had to play in either South Korea or Japan.
On 1 December 2001, the draw was held and the group assignments and order of fixtures were determined. Group F was considered the [[group of death]], as it brought together Argentina, England, Nigeria and Sweden.

The teams in the group play were ranked upon
* Most points
Tying teams would be ranked on:
* Greatest total goal difference in the three group matches
* Greatest number of goals scored in the three group matches
Still tying teams would be ranked on:
* Most points earned in matches against other teams in the tie
* Greatest goal difference in matches against other teams in the tie
* Greatest number of goals scored in matches against other teams in the tie
* Drawing of lots
In the original version of the rules for the final tournament, the ranking criteria were in a different order, with head-to-head results taking precedence over total goal difference. The rules were changed to the above in advance of the tournament, but older versions were still available on the FIFA and UEFA websites, causing some confusion among those trying to identify the correct criteria.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://ar.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/edition=4395/overview.html |title=كأس العالم كوريا/اليابان 2002 FIFA |date=June 2002 |work=[[FIFA]] |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120823123531/http://ar.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/edition=4395/overview.html |archivedate=23 August 2012 |df=dmy-all }}</ref>

Turkey defeated Senegal 1–0 in Osaka, with a golden goal scored by [[İlhan Mansız]] in the 93rd minute.
====Semi-finals, third-place match, and final====
The semi-finals saw two 1–0 games; The first semi-final, held in Seoul saw a Michael Ballack goal good enough for Germany to defeat South Korea. However, Ballack received a yellow card during the match, which forced him to miss the final based on accumulated yellow cards.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/soccer/world/2002/world_cup/news/2002/06/25/Ger_kor_gamer/ |title=Ballack lifts Germany past co-host, into seventh Cup final |date=25 June 2002 |work= |publisher=Sports Illustrated |accessdate=29 March 2012 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/66WyqmrLV?url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/soccer/world/2002/world_cup/news/2002/06/25/Ger_kor_gamer/ |archivedate=29 March 2012 |deadurl=no |df=dmy }}</ref> The next day in Saitama saw Ronaldo score a goal early in the second half, scoring his sixth of the competition for Brazil, who beat Turkey in a replay of their Group C encounter.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport3/worldcup2002/hi/matches_wallchart/brazil_v_turkey_semi_final/default.stm |title=Brazil stride into final |date=26 June 2002 |publisher=BBC Sport |accessdate=29 March 2012 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.independent.ie/sport/soccer/rejuvenation-of-brazil-awaiting-one-final-fling-304338.html |title=Rejuvenation of Brazil awaiting one final fling |date=27 June 2002 |work= |publisher=Irish Independent |accessdate=29 March 2012 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/66WyKi9c1?url=http://www.independent.ie/sport/soccer/rejuvenation-of-brazil-awaiting-one-final-fling-304338.html |archivedate=29 March 2012 |deadurl=no |df=dmy }}</ref>
In the third-place match in Daegu, Turkey beat the South Koreans 3–2, their first goal coming from [[Hakan Şükür]] straight from the opening kick-off (even though South Korea kicked off) in 10.8 seconds, the fastest ever goal in World Cup history.
In the [[2002 FIFA World Cup Final|final match]] held in Yokohama, Japan, two goals from Ronaldo secured the World Cup for [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]] as they claimed victory over [[German national football team|Germany]]. Ronaldo scored twice in the second half and, after the game, won the [[FIFA World Cup awards|Golden Shoe]] award for the tournament's leading scorer with eight goals. This was the fifth time Brazil had won the World Cup, cementing their status as the most successful national team in the history of the competition. Brazil became the only team since Argentina in [[1986 FIFA World Cup|1986]] to win the trophy without needing to win a [[Penalty shootout (association football)|penalty shootout]] at some stage during the knockout phase, and the total number of penalty shootouts (2) was the lowest since the four-round knockout format was introduced in 1986. Brazil also became the first team to win every match at a World Cup Finals since 1970, and set a new record for highest aggregate goal difference (+14) for a World Cup winner. Brazil's captain [[Cafu]], who became the first player to appear in three successive World Cup finals, accepted the trophy on behalf of the team.

==Ticket sales problem==
The original domestic ticket allocation had fully sold out and the organising committee completed sales of tickets returned from the international allocation by the end of April. However, it was obvious at the opening matches that there were a significant number of empty seats.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://archives.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/worldcup/06/01/probe.tickets/index.html |title=FIFA to probe empty seats |work=CNN.com |publisher=Cable News Network LP |date=1 June 2002 |accessdate=10 August 2013 |first=Andrew |last=Demaria}}</ref> It was gradually revealed that the World Cup Ticketing Bureau (WCTB) still had unsold tickets in its possession. After FIFA agreed to sell this inventory, JAWOC undertook sales over telephone and WCTB handled the internet sales.<ref>[http://www.soccerphile.com/soccerphile/archives/wc2002/ne/espp.html Football News – Empty Seats, Peace and Passion], World Cup Soccer and Global Football Information – Soccerphile</ref> For the second round Japan vs. Turkey match in Miyagi in particular, although it was reported by both parties that all tickets had been sold, some 700 seats remained empty.
==Controversies==
The tournament was criticized for many poor and questionable refereeing decisions. South Korea in particular faced scrutiny and allegations of corruption due to the favorable decisions they received in their controversial victories over Italy in the Round of 16 and over Spain in the Quarterfinals.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://deadspin.com/italian-paper-alleges-fifa-used-corrupt-refs-to-fix-200-1707704308|title=Italian Paper Alleges FIFA Used Corrupt Refs To Fix 2002 World Cup Games|last=Haisley|first=Billy|work=Deadspin|access-date=8 March 2017|language=en-US}}</ref><ref name="bbc.co.uk"/><ref name="auto"/>
