The 1966 World Cup Finals in memorable for many reasons. Games, phrases, goals and much more. But how many teams actually travelled to England to partake in the events? See comment box for answers. The answer is interesting!
not fair really. different times all together. Now they are hosting the event

sad to see African teams weren't there
The answer is 16. There were 4 groups of 4 teams each. The African nations boycotted the event because of a qualifying issue with FIFA. The process began with 70 teams but was widdled down to 16 to travel to London.
