Quiz! Name every English champion in every World Cup year
Let’s get quizzical.
There are certain years that immediately conjour memories of iconic World Cup moments. 2002? Ronaldinho’s free-kick against England. 2006? Zinedine Zidane’s headbutt. 2010? Frank Lampard’s ghost goal. But for fans of certain clubs, those years will instead hold memories of glorious title wins.
That’s why we want you to tell us every club to be crowned English league champions in a World Cup year (so, the Premier League or, pre-1992, the old First Division). There are 22 answers, spanning from 1930 to 2022, and you have just four minutes. Get quizzing!
We may be in the thick of the World Cup 2026, but we have plenty more quizzes on the domestic game to keep you occupied when you’re not watching the tournament. If you want a break from wall-to-wall international football, how about testing your knowledge on other matters – courtesy of Kwizly.
If you managed to name all 22 English champions in a World Cup year, this next one will be right up your street. Expanding our horizons to include France, Germany, Italy and Spain, we’re asking you to name every club to have won one of Europe’s top five leagues since 1992. That year was hugely significant in football history, signalling the dawn of both the Premier League and the Champions League – and if you think you know everything about Europe’s elite club competition, we reckon you should try to name every club to have played in the Champions League.
If you really want to drill down into your Champions League knowledge, we also have quizzes on more specific topics. One of the most iconic games in the competition’s history was Inter Milan’s incredible backs-to-the-wall effort against Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona in the 2010 semi-finals. It was a match that spawned memes before memes were even a thing, but can you name Jose Mourinho’s Inter side that held off Barca that night? Following that, you could challenge yourself with a set of questions that don’t require such a long memory with our Ultimate Quiz of 2025/26. How much do you remember about the players, teams and moments that shaped last season?
