Each World Cup has narrowed down the teams to a "Final Four" at one
point or another.

In 1930, One semifinal featured Argentina vs the United States, the
US lost, 6-1.

In 1966, one semifinal featured England and Portugal, which England
won, 2-1.  England went on to beat West Germany in the final, 4-2 aet.

That is the only time any of the United States, England, Scotland, Wales,
Ireland, or Northern Ireland reached the semi-finals.

If I remember, I shall bring in one of my books and post the histories
of teams in the World Cup Final Tournament.
