FIFA World Cup
Let an agent handle the FIFA World Cup by edition, host, teams, results, tickets and records, with sourced data and neutral handling of controversies.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.
