The 1970 FIFA World Cup was the ninth edition of the FIFA World Cup, the quadrennial international football championship for men's senior national teams. It was the first World Cup tournament staged in North America and the first held outside Europe and South America. Teams representing 75 nations from all six populated continents entered the competition and its qualification rounds began in May 1968. Fourteen teams qualified from this process to join host nation Mexico and defending champions England in the 16-team final tournament. El Salvador, Israel and Morocco made their debut appearances at the final stage.
The tournament was won by Brazil, who defeated another former two-time world champion, and current 1968 European champion Italy, by 4–1 in the final.
