So at this tournament, obviously being held this summer in the USA, Mexico and Canada, the total number of World Cup games all time will tick over 1,000 matches.

So what better time to rewind the clock and pick out some of our highlights.
voice-verified
We haven't gone all the way back to 1930 for this one.
voice-verified
We're going to keep it relatively modern with the emphasis on relatively.
voice-verified
We're going to go from 1986 through to 2022.
voice-verified
So 10 moments from the last 10 editions, one per tournament.
voice-verified
It's by no means definitive, and I'm sure you might have some contrary opinions, but it's just a little bit of fun.
voice-verified
Here with me to adjudicate are Oli Kay, Will Jeans, Hi Duncan, Jack Lang, Hi, and Felipe Cardenas.
voice-verified
Buenos dias.
voice-verified
Let's warm up with a little bit of open discussion, shall we, Jack?
voice-verified
Before we get into our selections, what does everyone think are the ingredients of a special World Cup moment?
voice-verified
Start with you, Jack.
voice-verified
Felipe, do you agree with all that?
voice-verified
Yeah, I think that's an important detail, isn't it?
voice-verified
The way it kind of connects us with the history of the World Cup to incidents we maybe didn't see at the time because we weren't alive, but we kind of know almost, you know, really, really well.
voice-verified
Will, you're very much a football historian.
voice-verified
Obviously, we're going to start in 1986 with this exercise.
voice-verified
But if you had to pick one thing from pre-1986, what do you reckon?
voice-verified
The biggest moment?
voice-verified
Yeah, and I think that's what made the Qatar World Cup odd for a lot of people in the Northern Hemisphere in the sense that it was in the winter and, you know, World Cups associated with being places with friends, with hot summers.
