Winning the FIFA World Cup is the ultimate achievement in international football, but staying on top has proven to be an even greater challenge. Throughout World Cup history, only two national teams have successfully defended their title, while many football powerhouses suffered shocking exits just four years after reaching glory. The so-called "Champion's Curse" has become one of the most fascinating patterns in the sport. Spain, Italy, and Germany are among the teams that went from lifting the trophy to enduring historic disappointments in the following World Cup.
