The story of 1938
Italy became the first team to retain the trophy, again under Vittorio Pozzo — still the only manager to win two World Cups. Brazil's Leônidas, the "Black Diamond", was the tournament's star and top scorer. The last World Cup before World War II forced a 12-year gap; the Jules Rimet trophy spent the war hidden in a shoebox under an Italian official's bed.
