Before that, they consecutively played in top tier 15 seasons between 1957 to 1972. Beyond miracle, Who imagined that they could win the top flight title when Liverpool was spending their peak years with statistics unbeaten at home matches ! This is considered as the most skipped performance in history of club football. The team comprised only 3 international players are are Peter Shilton who was arguably an only world-class player in this team, Archie Gemmell from Scotland and Martin O'Neil from Northern Ireland. </span></p><div><br /></div><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">2. Hellas Verona 1984 - 1985</span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Batang, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Hellas Verona finished 8th in 1983 - 1984 season. During 1980s, Series A is the most competitive league in
Europe, people just speculated Torino, Juventus, AC Milan, Inter Milan or AS Roma to
have a chance but at its 14th Series A season, Hellas Verona defeated a ton of great teams and lost only 2
games and incredibly came the first place ! The team was led by foreign international stars like Elkjaer and Hans Peter Briegel. The rest of the team all are Italian who was never called for Caps.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Batang, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">3.

possible for smaller clubs to overthrow Top European clubs but Leicester made
it wonderfully with only 3 games loss. The club made only 14th place in the previous season and was just promoted in the season before that. Riyad Mahrez, N'Kolo Kante and Jamie Vardy are main superstars of the team. However, there was only Kasper Schmeichel who was an international player before the season started. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;">4.

However, the standard of competition was questionable as Ipswich lost 10 matches and got only 56 points from 42 games !</span></p><div><br /></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;">5.

Particularly, the club finished the last place in 1972 but no relegation rule at that season. Penarol and Nacional were one of the leading clubs in the world at that time but a new promoted Central Espanol acquire the trophy with more 1 point than Penarol. Before that, only Defensor Sporting could win a champion in 1976. There was no player from central Espanol in 1983 Copa America Uruguay squad. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;">6.

The club still has the same entire set of players starting eleven led by Frank Swift, Peter Doherty and Eric Brook but finished season at 21th place in the following season and relegated to Second Tier after played in Top flight in consecutive 10 seasons. This is considered as the most fluctuated performance in the football league history. </span></p></div><div><br /></div><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;">7.

Tottenham amazed English football when they won the title upon its promotion. Despite, the club was just promoted, there were 3 international players in the team, Ted Ditchburn, Alf Ramsey and Ron Burgress. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;">8.

In history, there is only another time that winner were not top 3, Belenense made it in 1946. Boavista started as a regular member of the top flight since 1970s, before realizing champions, they used to finish second place twice. Although winning title, no players from Boavista is in top ten top scorer signifying the great teamwork. The team was led by an only international player of the team is Erwin Sanchez.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;">9.

The club was then a new promoted team in 1997 - 1998 season after relegated the first time in history in previous two seasons, not like in England that there are 3 clubs in history to win the top flight when they're just promoted, Bundesliga has a less fluctuated when the higher gap between big and small clubs had been maintained. It just like a fairly-tale that Kaiser coincidentally won the title with the same W-D-L as they did in previous 2.Bundesliga season !. The team consists of 6 international players are Olaf Marschall, Pavel Kuka, Martin Wagner,Ciriaco Sforza, Mirsolav Kadlec and Andreas Brehme.</span></p><div><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;"><b>10.

Between 2005 and 2007, Wolfburg survived from relegation suddenly in two consecutive seasons but the next two seasons, the club won the Bundesliga title ! The team was led by two international stars Edin Dzeko and Grafrite but both just played only a few games for their nations prior to season begun.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;"><br /></p></span></div><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Batang","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px;">11.

However, When the club changed only 3 starting players, the performance was dramatically dropped and finished at 17th place in the following season and relegated to Regionalliga Sud.

<span style="font-family: "batang" , "serif"; font-size: large;">The World Cup begun in 1930 and in it spent long time in developing step
until all top nations decided to enter the major tournament in unison.
Moreover, the World War II discontinued World Cup during 1940s and regional war impacted on suspension of some nations.
Another factor is the rule that suspended players who played outside country
prevented some nations to have its best team. This article is to analyze what
history of World Cup would have look like in ideal condition of football history.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , "serif"; font-size: large;">The
strong potential team to beat Uruguay is Austria that formed “Wunderteam” led
by Hugo Meisl. Although Austria won only one match in 5 friendly games in 1930, lost
Hungary twice and Draw England, the mainstay of the team likes Blum, Smistik
and Sindelar played only one game or did not play. Had Austria formed the
complete team and participated in the tournament with every player as one of international legends
in their position, the winner of world cup might belong to Austria.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Argentina full team entered to the tournament, Italy might not be able to continue winning World Cup title. From October 1937 to October 1938, Argentina played 5 games
and all were victory against Uruguay in small international cup. Argentina

afterwards most Latin American leagues turned professional in the mid-1930s and
latest in 1977 for Bolivian football. The Latin American clubs competed

Basic Proportional Weight :
Domestic League 52 %, Domestic Cup 16 %, Int. Club 32 % The performance is calculated in aggregate
within a season not separated since the performance between competitions were a
mutual dependent factors as football is purpose to mainly win the trophy not
optimize the performance in any of competition level. As many of competitions
are tournaments formats, it is implemented and calculated in aggregate mini-leagues
method. For the season without domestic cup, basically the domestic league
proportion is expanded to 60 % and increase more 16 % in non-international club
era. Exceptionally the league proportion could be increased between 77 at
minimum and 80 % at maximum by compensation from over number of participation
(> 38 to 46 games per seasons). However,
if the obtained performance is a negative value, it is not applied to the
system and equal to Zero. That mean the lowest value to apply for the system
has been standardized.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">V. Discussion</span></b><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The methodological implementation
allows the rankings to have represented the clubs’ entire performances against
the determined standard and greatness throughout the history. However, the
qualitative analysis to determine top level performance of the best club in
Latin Americas between seasons and eras are provided by author’s cumulative
tacit knowledge converted to mathematics that is always debatable but the scale
of tolerance is however quite narrowed, possibly effecting on the change of
rankings in a minor part. Additionally, the proportional criteria between
parts of evaluation and the proportional weight given to highest to lowest
performance has a main role to finalize the ranking. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The seasonal weight applied to the
seasonal rating reduces the disadvantage of the teams that participated in
lower seasons than average group in case of achieving a competitive high peak
and the teams participated in more seasons than average group is just
advantageous as they had more opportunities but the number of calculated
seasons is still limited in average value. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The result of implementation saw the
disqualification of 4 clubs from highest to lowest are LDU Quito,
Argentinos Juniors, Atletico Junior and UNAM Pumas. LDU Quito’s total score is
lowered than Santa Fe, the last place in the table in the amount that </span><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 16.6667px;">is unanimously differentiable</span><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> although LDU's aggregate peak is more than that of Santa Fe by 0.8.
Argentinos Juniors is the only club that won Copa Libertadores Cup but
disqualifies for top 50 ranking list as the majority of club history were spent
in the average places of first tier or even second tier.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> Penarol appeared as the all-time best
Latin American club ever as approximated, beating the second place River Plate
by 0.94 % of point when the aggregate peak is equal between the two clubs. Boca
Juniors’ evaluated point is not significantly differentiated to River Plate but the aggregate season enabling River Plate to be eligible
for obtaining higher place suddenly. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The best Brazilian club Sao Paolo appears in
top five, considering to beat Olimpia Asuncione, who achieved similar titles
and runner-up in Copa Libertadores Cup, by lower value of opportune participation
factor. Santos who achieved the highest aggregate peak among Brazilian clubs finished the fourth place among Brazilian clubs. Gremio and Internacional are disadvantageous
as the pre-1960s Campeonato Gaucho was competed in elimination format with a
few numbers of appearances. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> Outside the big three nations, Chilean clubs
are advantageous in term of domestic cup participation and allows Colo Colo to
finish near top 10. Surprisingly, it was Universidad Catolica that achieved the
highest aggregate peak season in the continents. In 1962, the club finished
runner-up in both domestic league and cup and was defeated by Santos narrowly
in semi-final round. The three Paraguayan clubs are ranked by approximation
technique with an inevitable large biased as none of league record existence. Colombian
and Ecuadorian clubs collected fewer number of seasons than the others and highly
impact on its status in history. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 6pt 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> There are six CONCACAF clubs
qualified in top 50 list with the best representative Club America but no one achieve
the best league performer in Latin Americas and Only Club America in 1983 achieve
the international trophy bonus. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "batang" , "serif"; font-size: medium;"> Throughout the European club
football history, there was a chronological evolutionary change of competitions. The first professional football in Europe was formed in England 1892 but most of European leagues turned professional in the 1930s and latest in 1950s. The limitations of football at the early era such as non-existence of international club competition, the irregularity of competition format and qualification, etc has left</span><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: medium;"> the complexity and difficulty for us to reach the status of each European club in its whole history. </span></div>

team all-time ranking<sup>[2]</sup> and The Worldwide historical club ranking<sup>[3]</sup>
based on mathematics [Marcelo, 2016) ranks the team based on titles criteria which
is set the standard points of title acquisition between the leagues and the
point given to any league are equally given between seasons. By this context,
there is no proven source of standard point and not represents the actual
fluctuation of the league/international cup standard from era to era. The
evaluations were also not differentiated the performances to achieve the round

performance in any of competition level. For the season without domestic cup,
the domestic league proportion is expanded to 60 % and increase for 16 % in
non-international club era. However, if the obtained performance is a negative
value, it is not applied to the system and equal to Zero. That mean the lowest

<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;">
The methodological implementation allows the rankings to have
represented the clubs’ entire performances against the determined standard and greatness throughout the
history. However, the qualitative analysis to determine top level performance of the best club
in Europe between seasons and eras are provided by author’s
cumulative tacit knowledge converted to mathematics that is always debatable
but the scale of tolerance is however quite narrowed, possibly effecting on the
change of rankings in a minor part. Additionally, the proportional
criteria between parts of evaluation and the proportional weight given to
highest to lowest performance has a main role to finalize the ranking. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The seasonal weight applied to the seasonal rating reduces the disadvantage of the teams that participated in lower seasons than average group in case of achieving a competitive high peak and the teams participated in more seasons than average group is just advantageous as they had more opportunities but the number of calculated seasons is still limited in average value. </span><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 16.6667px;"> </span><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The result of implementation saw the disqualification of 3 clubs
from highest to lowest are Ruch Chorzow, Wisla Krakow and Parma. The two Polish
clubs were selected as they have a similar number of seasonal domestic places
to Legia Warsaw but the results show that they achieved its highest performance
in lower level than that of Legia Warsaw for the most parts. Parma is known to
achieve one of the highest peaks in their golden era during the second half
1990s. However, the club spent in Series C too long and the post-golden era
have also been struggling to sustain their place in the top flight.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> Real Madrid is unsurprisingly ranked as a number one of
Europe. Although the club won league titles much more than Barcelona, they are
rated as the best European seasonal league performer less than Barcelona, who is the
most winners for this status, 1 time and Barcelona also achieves the higher
peak by aggregate season. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> Bayern Munich’s place implies the absolute difference parts of the
club between the pre-Bundesliga and post-Bundesliga era. Between 1920 – 1963,
Bayern's place is roughly determined in the same status as German second league around 20 seasons and is also comparable to participate the third tier
in 1955 and 1956 when they finished bottom place in Oberliga Sud and the top
place in Oberliga Sud second tier.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> Internazionale win in the All-Time Battle of Milan. The overall score is similar. However, Inter achieved higher level within their peak seasons with some of Double and a Triple. AC Milan mostly achieved its peak performance in domestic and international in different seasons. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> Man Utd VS Liverpool is an important issue. If not applied weight to the
seasons and count every available English seasons, Liverpool win by more than
2.5 % of point. Man Utd also would beat Liverpool if applied weights and count
all English seasons. For all that, Man Utd surpasses Liverpool more than 0.2 %
in the table so they’re eligible to be ranked higher automatically. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The non-European international competition era is designed to give the
higher point for the highest league performer as well as the point for Mitropa
club competition and the result reflected to save the great central European
clubs in the pre-European cup era in a high place. The best eastern European
club is highly competitive when the Dinamo Kiev, Sparta Prague and Rapid Vienna
are ranked adjacently. However, as aforementioned in implementation part, the
Czechoslovak and Hungarian Cup record are unavailable in some seasons. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The international country’s continental
football history officially began at the 1916 South American Championship football
tournament although all participants are only 4. The first international
tournament ever in Europe is the 1883 British Home Championship. However, most
of continental tournaments established in the late 1950s (AFC Asian Cup in
1956, African Cup of Nation in 1957 and European Nations Cup in 1960). <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The World
Football Elo rating<sup>[1]</sup> is a ranking system to calculate national
team performance based on every official matches played, invented by Alpad Elo
and implemented in 1872, with a formula that includes various football
competition parameters are marginal victory coefficient, level between
competitors, importance of matches and finally concludes the ranking of nations
by month. The FIFA World ranking system<sup>[2]</sup> was followed in 1992 with
a similar factors of formula to Elo Rating. However, these two systems allows
the performance in friendly matches to take advantage although the game is just
an uncompetitive trial playing and the game result is meaningless in historical
status. Also, the determination between competitors level from previous result
could be highly erroneous when the fluctuation of team performance is commonly
existed within a single tournament. Importantly, there has been none of all-time national
teams ranking works established to date.

<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> Accordingly,
this work’s objective is to study, integrally regulate and standardize the
system of the entire international country history for the
evaluation, including all performance characteristics (win-draw-lose, goal
difference, place, round and trophy) against the determined standard of
competitions within the designed system of methodology conformed to the existed
format or condition at any point of evaluation. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

are some additional participants in the expansive remodel of competition to
standardize the opportune factor between eras based on qualifying performance
but the additional teams will be given the performance rating just 50 % in

from minimum standard value of qualifying performance and level of participants
in qualification round in specific years. The finished round is extended to the

<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The methodological implementation
allows the rankings to have represented the countries’ entire performances
against the determined standard and greatness throughout the history. However,
the qualitative analysis to determine top level performance of the winner
between tournaments and eras are provided by author’s cumulative tacit
knowledge converted to mathematics that is always controversial but the scale
of tolerance is however quite narrowed, possibly effecting on the change of
rankings in a minor scale. Additionally, the proportional criteria between
parts of evaluation and the proportional weight given to highest to lowest
performance has a main role to finalize the ranking. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 6.0pt; margin: 6pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> The partition weight applied to the
tournament rating reduces the disadvantage of the teams that participated in
lower tournaments than average group in case of achieving a competitive high
peak and the teams participated in more seasons than average group is just
advantageous as they had more opportunities but the number of calculated
tournaments is still limited in average value. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 6.0pt; margin: 6pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> In Europe, Germany has become
the number one as expected and left the very high gap to the second place
Italy. Spain’s greatness in the most recent era ranked them up to the third
place ahead of France. Czechoslovakia beat Holland thanks to its
consistency. In the peak years, Holland performed in a much higher level.
However, Holland in the pre-1970s can be classified as a below-average team in
Europe and even did not enter to World Cup qualifying rounds 2 times and the
same status in the additional period between 2016 to date. Soviet Union first
participated in international major tournament very late in 1958 and inevitably
impacts in its longevity. Although Scotland was known as one of the best team
in Europe during the 1920s, the nation participated in only British home
championship and only Olympic Games is applied into the system for that period.
For the former union likes Soviet Union, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia, the
best performance between related independent nations is applied to those
unions. Note that Croatia is the best performer among the independence nations
that separated from the unions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 3.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 3.0pt; margin: 3pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> In Americas, Brazil,
Argentina and Uruguay is unsurpassable in its place. South American nations
dominate the ranking as 8 of them appeared in top 10 and Mexico is the best
team outside this zone finished at 4th. USA and Canada’s football disappeared
in CONCACAF championship for around two decades that is largely impacted on the
ranking. Jamaica is also impacted from the same reason, not enter to four
continental qualifying rounds. Costa Rica finished as the best Central American
nation as approximated. There are only two nations in the ranking never participated
in World Cup are Guatemala and Panama. Cuba is disqualified for the list.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 6.0pt; margin: 6pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> In Africa, the top
places are very competitive and finally Cameroon finished the first place. Morocco became the best North African team as the greatest African nations in history of World Cup. Although South Africa was one of top African teams
in the modern era, the nation just first international football in 1990s and so
far to achieve the top group in the ranking. The implementation results saw the
disqualification of 3 teams in order are Libya, Ethiopia and Angola.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 6.0pt; margin: 6pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "batang" , serif; font-size: 12.5pt;"> In Asia &
Oceania, Korea Republic is the best nation in this zone while Israel and
Australia had a potential to get the number one place but the confliction to
the Middle East nations essentially conduct Israel to European zone and prevent
them to qualify for the prolific major tournaments while there is no zonal
competition for Australia until the inaugural OFC nations cup in 1996. Japan
increasingly developed themselves since 1990s in contrary to the pre-1990s that
the nation was just an average team in Asia. Uzbekistan, who is an independent nation
from Soviet Union, a leading Asian team in the modern era, is ascending the
ranking chronologically. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

They are just the second greatest club in Greek league. Oppositely, Their performance in European Competition with 2 times semi-finalists and one time finalist was impressive enough to be one of the top clubs in Eastern Europe.

They changed their name to P.P.O before changed its name two time to finally be P.A.O. - Panellinios Athlitikos<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Omilos. Panathinaikos has always been overshadowed by Olympiakos in Greek league.

The golden age was happened during the early and mid 60s, appeared in all major treble finalists in the 1964 - 1965 and just lost in Coppa Italia final, won three scudetto include three runner-ups and also achieved two European Cups including one runner-up. The era of declination was happened when the club had none of any trophy in six consecutive seasons (1982 - 1988). The 1990s is another era the club didn’t won any league title but it was compensated with the victory 3 UEFA Cups in 4 final matches as a record most winners of all-time. In the 2nd half 2000s, Inter finally won Series A after 16 seasons in row without winning league titles and six consecutive seasons without any title. Moreover the club dominated the Series A, won Series A five seasons in row in which is a record in Italy, the two of those seasons were double champions.

The national team was founded the Kingdom of Serbs in the first international match in 1920. The affiliation to FIFA was created in 1923, played its first international tournament in the 1924 Olympic games and it was one of the founding members in the first ever FIFA World Cup in 1930. The greatest era of Yugoslavia was happened in the 1950s to the early 1960s when its superstars formed the team until reaching semi-final round as their best ever place in the FIFA World Cup of the 1962 tournament and additionally finished runner-up in the first ever European Championship in 1960. Even they disqualified for the 1966 and 1970 FIFA World Cup, it is surprising that the team could finish second place again in the 1968 European Championship. Yugoslavia met another prominent time in the late 1980s and played the last tournament in the 1990 FIFA World Cup before the partition of nation and was suspended in the 1992 European Championship and the 1994 FIFA World Cup. Afterwards, Croatia and Serbia-Montenegro made their first appearance for the international tournament in the 1998 FIFA World Cup and Croatia could win third place.</span><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;"><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-size: medium; margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt;"><br /></div></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;">

It was one of the greatest team in the World in the first half of the 20th Century. England is the joint oldest national football team in the world, alongside Scotland that played together in the world's first international football match in 1872. It was affiliated to FIFA in 1905. England played in international tournament just only for British home championship. England didn’t participate in pre-war World Cups due to disagreement with FIFA despite they were the top team in the World at that time. They played their first ever World Cup in 1950 and It was one of the founding members of UEFA in 1954. England’s golden era was the 1960s, won their only World Cup champion in 1966 as host and first qualified for European Championship of the 1968 tournament and won third place. The 1970s became their dark era as they didn’t qualify for World Cup twice from total three.

They hold the record most winners in British home championship.</span></div>

<span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">Haiti national team is the greatest Caribbean team of all-time as the best performance in all-time CONCACAF Championship and FIFA World Cup qualifying record.Its first international macth was held in 1925. Haiti was first admitted to FIFA so early in 1933 and is one of the founding members of CONCACAF in 1961. They first entered in FIFA World Cup qualification since 1934. Haiti has one of the longest football traditions in the Caribbean. Throughout the 60s, and 70s, Haiti's football status in the region remained very strong, being considered the third strongest team in CONCACAF after Mexico and arguably Costa Rica. Haiti appeared in CONCAACF Championship final match three times in row between 1971 and 1977 and won the title in 1973, led them to qualify for World Cup as the only occasion in their history. However, they lost all three games in the final tournament. Since the second half 1980s until the present, Haiti has not been in the top level status of the continent.</span><br />

Its first international macth was held in 1934. Trinidad was first a member to FIFA and CONCACAF during the early 1960s. Trinidad entered to play in World Cup qualification round for the first time in 1965 and first participated in CONCACAF Championship in 1967.The middle of 1970s became their first memorable era when they finished second place in the 1973 CONCACAF Championship which is also the FIFA World Cup qualifying round. They missed the champion and a ticket to qualify for World Cup in the last game due to match fixing-scandal of referees. Nevertheless, this achievement is still the best place ever in their history of Continental championship. Trinidad was closest to qualify for World Cup again in 1989 but narrowly missed before finally won its first occasion in the 2006 FIFA World Cup and could win one point after drawing in a game.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;"><br /></span></div></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;">

It was one of the members in the first edition of FIFA World Cup in 1930 and won third place as highest place in their history of the tournament. In the post-war era, USA still performed well in the 1950 FIFA World Cup and ended the first half the 20th Century impressively. On the other hand, unpopularity in Soccer sport for the USA citizen was the very strong factor to lead them disappearing in the World stage between 1950s and 1980s, not qualified for World Cup and even CONCACAF championship final tournament until 1989. The 1990s is regarded as the rebirth of American soccer. They qualified for the 1990 World Cup for the firs time in four decades and was selected as host in 1994. Since then, its football has been much developed and reached their best achievement in the 2002 FIFA World Cup quarter-finalist. USA has been catching from an eye around the World to see their level in the prime.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>

Regrettably, Chile withdrew to play in South American Championship in 1963 despite it was their golden period. In overall history, Chile’s performance has been performed irregularly and it has been always opposite result between FIFA World Cup qualifying round and South American Championship in each period. This led them to have never met the dark era. Chile became the best team in the Americas in the mid-2010s with two Copa America winners.</span><br />

The first international match was held in 1923, turned professional in 1927 and first joined FIFA in 1929. Mexico was one of the first members in the first ever FIFA World Cup in 1930. Mexico was one of the founding members of CONCACAF in 1961 before first won its championship in 1965. As being a dominance side of the CONCACAF zone, Mexico missed to qualify for World Cup just three occasions since the post-war era, one of those was banned in 1990 due to using players over the age limit in Olympic Games. Mexico ever host FIFA World Cup twice and their closest occasion to reach semi-final as a victory was created in the 1986 tournament when they lost on penalty in quarter-final match. Since 1994, Mexico has qualified for every World Cup and finish second round in all five. Mexico also holds the record most consecutive champions in CONCACAF Gold Cup with three between 1993 and 1998. Mexico was very successful in Copa America after they has been regularly invited to play since 1993.</span></div></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt;"><span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 4pt;"><br /></div>

They played the first international match in 1917. It was affiliated to FIFA in 1929 and was one of the founding members in AFC in 1954 before first participated in the FIFA World Cup qualification round in the same year. The first major achievement in international football came in the 1968 Summer Olympics where the team won Bronze Medal as a record the only team for the Asia to win medal. They also took part in AFC Asian Cup qualification for the first time in the same year. However, the absence of a professional domestic league hindered its growth and Japan did not enter to play in AFC Asian Cup for many times until could qualify for the final tournament for the first time in 1988 and won its first trophy in 1992 as host and finally became the most champions in AFC Asian Cup. The professional J-League was formed in 1993 and this originated their greatness in the 2000s. Japan missed their first appearance in World Cup final in the last minute in the same year before finally won the first appearance in the 1998 tournament. Until the present, Japan has become a regular member of FIFA World Cup final tournament.</span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">To describe about history of African football, it should be started when Egypt was the first African team to participate in World football. They entered playing in the 1924 Olympic Game Cup and is the first African team to participate in World Cup as its national team is the oldest national team in Africa. There were a few African nations to have its football association before 1960. Accordingly, the World Cup qualification zone Africa during the 1950s was majority competed just limited teams and mostly were from North Africa. After the confederation of African football was established, the majority of football associations were created during the early 1960s. In 1962, the FIFA World Cup qualification zone Africa was first formed for its own. However, All African teams withdrew in the 1966 tournament to protest allocation of spots that caused no African team in the FIFA World Cup final between 1950 and 1962. Eventually, FIFA agreed to give one qualifier to African zone for the 1970 tournament and Morocco won it. African qualifier was increased to two teams in 1982, three teams in 1994 and five teams in 1998. Note that it is only 1994 Africa was credited to increase team due to their performance directly after Cameroon built victory as the first African team to reach FIFA World Cup quarter-final in which is a best achievement in history of African football. Afterwards, Senegal and Ghana could also reach this honour. In the present, African football has been developing until there are very many equal high standard teams in the continent to raise the level of competitiveness. The strong factor is the support of foreign coaches and many African teams have been appearing of playing in the Europe. Due to the fact that many World-Class African primitive has been belonged to European team, the greatness of African football has never matched with their number of top legends. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span face=""arial" , "sans-serif"" style="color: #444444; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">“The Sparrow Hawks” The national football team of Togo has just been a well-known African team in the modern era. Like most African nations, It was affiliated to FIFA and CAF in the early 1960s after its first international match was held in 1956. Togo first entered to play in African Cup of Nation in 1968 until qualified for the first time in the 1972 tournament. Two years later, Togo first participated in FIFA World Cup qualifying round in 1974. The team was not a regular participant of African Cup of Nation and qualified for only twice before it was started developing in the late 1990s and qualified for most tournaments since then. Even Togo has never reached deeper round than the first group in continental competition, they could build victory to qualify for the 2006 FIFA World Cup surprisingly but lost all three games in the final tournament.</span><br />

Football just first arrived in South Africa through colonialism in the late nineteenth century. From the earliest days, its football was organized and affected by the country's system of racial segregation. The football association was divided into four consist of All-White, Indian, Bantu and Colours. All were formed in the pre-war era. This reason caused them not to compete in any tournament until first participated in both qualifying round of FIFA World Cup and African Cup of nation of the 1994 after South Africa was unified in its football in 1991 and playe dfirst match in 1992. In 1996, it is their first appearance in African Cup of nation final tournament and they could win it as the only trophy in their history as host. South Africa qualified for World Cup for the first time in 1998 and its best place in World Cup is 17th in the 2002 tournament. In the 2010 FIFA World Cup, it is a honour for South Africa to be the first African nation to be host in history.</span><br />

Zambia is one of the few African teams to have its football association before the 1930s. Before independence they were known as the Northern Rhodesia national football team and played its first international match in 1946. Nevertheless, Zambia was first admitted to FIFA and CAF lately in 1964. In 1970, it is a year they participated in both qualifying round of FIFA World Cup and African Cup of nation for the first time. Zambia first qualified for African Cup of nation final tournament in 1974 and immediately finished second place. The golden era of Zambian football was created in the first half 1990s, they finished runner-up in African Cup of nation once again and very close to qualify for the 1994 FIFA World Cup but missed it in the last game even their most top-class players were killed in air disaster before final round of qualifying was started.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

It was affiliated to FIFA and CAF and played the first international match during the early 1960s. Senegal's first appearance in the African Nations Cup was in 1965 and was able to finish fourth place in the tournament. However, Senegal was not a regular member in African Cup of nation final tournament until the 1990s. In 2002, it is the greatest year in history of Senegal football after they reached their best achievement in continental level with African Cup of nation runner-up after lost on penalties as well as reaching quarter-final in the 2002 FIFA World Cup despite it is their first participation. All of this are the symbol of their golden era in the early 2000s. Senegal also holds the record most winners in Amilcar Cabral Cup.</span></div>

The Irish heritage of Hibernian is still reflected. The club was admitted to the Scottish Football League in 1893, they had to win the Second Division twice before being elected into the First Division in 1895. Hibs' most successful era by far, was in the decade following the end of the Second World War, when it was "among the foremost clubs in Britain". Hibernian won three Scottish championship between 1948 and 1952. In 1955, Hibs became the first British club in Europe Despite only finishing fifth in the Scottish League Hibs were invited to participate in the first season of the European Cup, which was not strictly based on league positions at that time.</span><br />

Aston Villa was one of the dozen teams that competed in the inaugural Football League in 1888. Aston Villa emerged as the most successful English club of the Victorian era, winning no fewer than five League titles and three FA Cups by the end of Queen Victoria's reign, soon after though the club began a slow decline that led to Villa, at the time one of the most famous and successful clubs in world football, being relegated in 1936 for the first time to the Second Division. Villa also won the 1981–82 European Cup, one of only four English clubs to win what is now the UEFA Champions League.Villa were one of the founding members of the Premier League in 1992, and finished runners-up to Manchester United in the inaugural season and holds the record most goals ratio in one English top-flight season since 1893 with 3.04 (128 goals in 42 games) in the 1930 - 1931 season.</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">FC Twente is an all-time greatest Dutch club after “The Big Three. The club was formed in 1965 as a merger of two professional clubs, Sportclub Enschede and the Enschedese Boys. One of such predecessors, SC Enschede, had also won a single Eredivisie title in 1926 and finished runner-up 3 times. The club’s first golden era was created during the very late 60s to the first half 70s as they finished in top five of Eredivisie in every season. The best of those is second place in 1974 and built the victory to reach UEFA Cup final match in next year. Twente has ever relegated to Eerste Divisie once time in 1983.The club was bankruptcy in 2003 but was survived finally. The late 2000s became the best era of the club after Steve Mcclaren led them to win the only Dutch league title in 2010 after won runner-up in a prior year. It holds the record fewest conceding goal in an Eredivisie season with 13 in the 1971 - 1972.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The club was founded in 1924 as an unification of numerous local clubs based in France and the principality. In 1933, Monaco was invited by the French Football Federation to turn professional but failed to amateur in few years. By 1948, Monaco re-acquired its professional status and sustained effort resulting in promotion to the French first division for the first time in 1953. Monaco won its first league title in 1960 and won their only French double champion in 1968. Monaco has never dominated French league in any era and won seven league titles in six different decades. Nevertheless, the club was very successful in Europe during the 1990s and the second half 2000s especially in UEFA Champion league.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">Football Club des Girondins de Bordeaux is one of the famous legendary French clubs. Bordeaux was actually established since 1881 but the football department was created in three decades later. Bordeaux achieved professional status in football on 2 July 1936, partly due to the club's merger with fellow Bordelais outfit Girondins Guyenne Sport, which resulted in the club that exists today. The club earned the promotion to Ligue 1 for the first time in 1949 and immediately won the title in the season, is the only club in history of France football to ever do so. The golden period was created in the mid-eighties when Bordeaux won three league titles include a French double champion in 1987 and the 1986 European Cup semi-finalist and the team produced influence players to the successful French national team in the same period. The club relegated to Ligue 2 in 1991 before took a victory finishing second place in the 1996 UEFA Cup. Bordeux holds the record most consecutive wins in French Ligue with 14 between 2008 and 2010. <o:p></o:p></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">It </span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.3333px;">holds the record longest streak without conceding a goal in French Ligue with 1266 minutes achieved in the 1992 - 1993 season.</span><br />

Grasshopper had to withdraw from the Swiss championships in 1909 because they lacked a suitable playing ground and were not able to join again until 1916. In overall history, the club could dominate the league in two eras in the first half of 40s and of 80s. The most failure era is the 1960s, there was no trophy for consecutive 15 years. The best result of that period is second place in 1968. The 1990s is their best decade after won five league titles. Nevertheless, Grasshopper has not been much successful in Europe as the most recognizable representative from Switzerland. It holds the record highest goals ratio and goal differences ratio in a single season of Swiss top league with 4.15 (108 goals in 26 games) and 2.65 (69 diffs in 26 games) achieved in the 1953 - 1954 season and the 1942 - 1943 season, respectively.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">“The Wine Reds” Berliner FC Dynamo is the most successful club in the former East German football league with most league titles. A predecessor side to the current-day club was established in 1949 as Sportgemeinde Deutsche Volkspolizei Berlin. In 1953 this team assumed the place of SC Volkspolizei Potsdam in the DDR-Liga. The Potsdam and Berlin sides were later formally merged and after then played as part of the larger Sportvereinigung Dynamo. They first advanced to the DDR-oberliga in 1957. The club was re-established in 1966 as the current name, and absolutely dominated the league through the 1980s with winning consecutive ten league titles but there are many scandalous stories for this achievement. After German re-unification in 1990, the club has played in the regional liga.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">The football history in the city of Craiova began in the year 1921, when the first teams were founded; "Craiovan Craiova" and "Rovine Grivita Craiova". In 1940, the two teams from Craiova merged, resulting in one of the most successful Romanian football teams in the Interwar period. Finally in 1948 “Universitatea Craiova” took life at the initiative of a group of students and professors. The 1982/1983 season has been, without doubt, the best in the history of "The Champion of a Great Love" a nickname used for Universitatea by the media, because of the tremendous love and immense passion that always surrounded the team. That magnificent side stayed fresh for long time in the memory of Romanian fans. In 1991 Universitatea Craiova won for the last time the Championship and the Romanian Cup. In the last years Craiova became a middle-table team, with rather poor performances. At the end of the 2004-2005 season they had been relegated to the second football division for the first time in the club's history. However, Craiova was promoted back to Liga I the season after.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

After a few years, the team started competing in the first league in 1931. The club holds the European record most consecutive cup winners with 6 achieved during 1937 - 1942. During the pre-war years, Rapid was one of Romania's top teams, regularly winning the cup but never the championship although they came close. In 1940 Rapid was the first football team in Romania who managed the European cup final qualification, the Central European Cup, undisputed because of the Second World War. The middle of the 1960s is Rapid’s greatest era. In the 1970s and 1980s Rapid reached their great years before getting worse and worse, becoming confined in the second league for 6 years in a row. However, Rapid came back to be the top Romanian club again in 1990s to 2000s.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

When the Lokomotiv Voluntary Sports Society was created in 1936, its football team featured the best players of Kazanka. Performances after World War II suffered and actually in the space of five year Lokomotiv were relegated to the Soviet First League twice .The important trademark for Lokomotiv was the authorization of playing friendly matches against foreign opposition. This because up to the late fifties, international sports contacts of the Soviet teams were extremely rare. In the beginning of 1990s Lokomotiv was considered the "weakest link" among top Moscow clubs. It lacked both results on the pitch and fans support in the stands</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">OFK Beograd was founded in 1911. In its rich history, the club has also been named Metalac between 1945 and 1950. How it all started is just as how the club is living today: never on top but always among the best. Usually, it is in the shadow of the bigger Belgrade clubs. A two decade long "Golden Era" had begun. The 1960s and the first half of the 1970s were years of European glory. OFK Beograd had participated eight times in European competitions. The Romantičari were not able to take advantage of their success on the domestic and European scene. After several successful season, a sudden fall occurred. OFK Beograd was slowly losing its brilliance. During the 1980s, the club has often been changing leagues, from the First Division to the Second. The "Silent Fall" lasted as long as the Golden Era. Still, the tradition could not be forgotten and the club comes back to its old habits in the 1990s. Fourth position in 1992 and 1994 announced a bright future for OFK in the 21st century.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The club used to belong to the ZIL automobile plant until a fallout in the mid-1990s that resulted in Torpedo leaving their historic ground and moving across town to Luzhniki, as they became property of the Luzhniki corporation. In 1957 Torpedo Moscow, as well as other Soviet sport clubs named "Torpedo", became a part of the republican VSS Trud of the Russian SFSR. It was denied membership of the Professional Football League (the organization that conducts competition in the Russian First Division and Russian Second Division) and did not play in the professional competitions in 2009.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">Zenit Saint Petersburg is the famous team both in former Soviet top league and Russian premier league. Zenit's history is tightly connected with the turbulent political history of Saint Petersburg, Russia (also called "Petrograd" and "Leningrad" at times in its history). The original team Zenit stemmed from several football teams, which changed names and owners many times during the Soviet era after the Revolution of 1917. Powerful political forces manipulated the careers of individual players as well as the fate of the whole team. The club was renamed several times, and its owners and leaders were under political pressure for many decades. The origins of Zenit date back to the beginning of the 20th century, to several predecessor teams in Saint Petersburg that were playing locally. The oldest documented predecessor of Zenit was team "Murzinka", founded in 1914. In overall history, Zenit won Soviet league and Russian league one time only.</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">Slavia Prague is one of the greatest clubs in the pre-war era. Slavia were founded in 1892 in Vinohrady, Prague as a sport club, where cycling dominated. In 1896, a new sport came to the club – football. The rivals were AC Sparta Prague. The great era for Slavia started in 1905, when Scottish manager and former Celtic player John William Madden brought new tactics and views on football from his home country. He managed to set up an early golden age for the club that lasted 25 years and is the only club to have participated all Mitropa Cup tournaments. The second gold period during the wartime - early 1940s came when Slavia bought Josef Bican. Poor results continued during nineteen-fifties and sixties when Slavia were relegated twice. They were promoted back in 1965. A new age and comeback to the top began in 1990 in Grambinus liga or Czech top league but they have repeated failure for years until back to have great performance in recent seasons. The club holds the record most goals ratio and goal differences ratio in a single season of Czecholosvakian league with 5.09 (112 goals in 22 games) and 3.95 (87 diffs in 22 games) both achieved in the first ever 1925 - 1926 season. </span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 14px;">It is one of the four European clubs won every game in the whole domestic league season achieved in 1929 - 1930 season (14 games).</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">Dynamo Moscow is the oldest Russian football club and the only one which has always played in the top tiers of the Soviet (for the Soviet era - sharing this achievement jointly with Dynamo Kyiv) and the Russian football competitions never being relegated to the lower divisions. Despite this, it has never won today's Russian Premier League title. Dynamo Moscow has its roots in the club Morozovtsi Orekhovo-Zuevo Moskva founded as a factory team in 1887. After the Russian revolution of 1917 the club eventually found itself under the authority of the Interior Ministry and its head Felix Dzerzhinsky chief of the Soviet Union's first secret police force, the notorious Cheka. The club was re-named Dinamo Moskva in 1923 and developed some infamy for its intimidating association with the Interior Ministry, often being referred to as Garbage, a Russian criminal slang term for police, by the supporters of other clubs. It possesses the greatest Soviet League seasonal result with 19-2-1 achieved in 1945 in which is also a record highest goals ratio and goal differences ratio with 3.32 (73 goals) and 2.73 (60 diffs) in total 22 games.</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">MTK Hungary is the best Hungarian clubs between the1910s to 1920s. About a dozen sport loving citizens decided in 1888 in a cafe in Budapest to form the Magyar Circle of Hungarian Fitness Activists. Before the introduction of professional football MTK was the most successful Hungarian team. Prior to the Second World War the team managed to win 15 Hungarian League titles and gained 7 Hungarian Cup victories. During the professional era the team could not repeat the same performance. Due to the participation of many Jewish figures in the club, it had the reputation of being a "Jewish" team and suffered from antisemitism beginning in the 1930s and 1940s, a phenomenon that continues to the present. In 1949 when Hungary became a communist state, MTK were taken over by the secret police, the ÁVH, and subsequently the club became known as Textiles SE. They then became Bástya SE, then Vörös Lobogó SE, which means Red Banner or Red Flag, and then finally back to MTK. Despite this turmoil, the 1950s proved a successful era for the club. It holds the World amateur record most goals ratio and goal differences ratio in a domestic single season with 6.68 (147 goals in 22 games) and 6.23 (137 diffs in 22 games) in the 1917 - 1918 season. </span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.3333px;">The club holds the record most consecutive title winners of Hungarian league with 9 achieved during 1917 - 1925 and holds the record most unbeaten professional domestic league seasons in Europe with four.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 15.3333px;">Spartak Moscow is well-known as the all-time greatest club from Russia. In the early days of Soviet football many government agencies such as the police, army, and railroads created their own clubs. In 1921 the Moscow Sport Circle was formed. The team grew, building a stadium, supporting itself from ticket sales. In the middle of 1930s, The team changed its name, this time to Spartak Moscow. It took its name from the Roman slave rebel Spartacus, a gladiator. In 1936 the Soviet Top League was established. Spartak was only inferior to Dynamo Moscow before World War II. During 1950-s Spartak together with Dynamo Moscow dominated Soviet Top League but by mid-60s they was no more regarded as a leading Soviet club. The club was even less successful in the 1970s, was relegated into the lower league. In 1989 Spartak won the its last USSR Championship before the league came to the end. A new page in the club’s history began again after then. Problems began in the new century and they have had a hard time to get back their great status in the past.</span></div>

During the Soviet era, the club was one of the main rivals, to the football clubs from Moscow. In 1936 the first Soviet Championship was played, and Dynamo Kiev was one of the pioneers of the newly formed league.
