00:00The World Cup is coming!
00:01Hey guys, my name is Tristan Benitez and I'll be kicking off with you with Slice of Culture for the
00:06World Cup.
00:07So if you're new to the game of soccer or a veteran looking for a refresher, come with me.
00:11Today we're prepping you for a tournament that's less than three months away.
00:15So today we're going to start off with the year 1930, which is essentially the beginning of the World Cup.
00:23The FIFA World Cup started in 1930 with Uruguay lifting the trophy in their 4-2 victory against Argentina.
00:29Now, 95 years later, the World Cup is one of the biggest sporting events in the world.
00:33This summer, the Americas will be hosting the World Cup for the first time since 1994, with Canada, the United
00:38States and Mexico being the host countries.
00:41There's a total of 48 teams competing instead of the traditional 32.
00:44This will be the first time in the tournament's history.
00:47And some matches can be played right here in New Jersey. Read the full breakdown in the link in our
00:51bio.
00:52Today we're getting you ready for the tournament. That is...
00:56Let's... Oh, f***.
