Here Are The Three Of The Biggest Wins In The World Cup

Portugal 7-0 DPR Korea – 2010

The 2010 World Cup clash between Portugal and North Korea was marked by Cristiano scoring his first international goal in 16 months of asking, and his only one of the competition.

Raul Meireles, Simao, Hugo Almeida, Liedson and Tiago (two) completed the scoring in what was the only fixture in the tournament in which the Portuguese found the back of the net.

Poland 7-0 Haiti – 1974

Poland racked up three wins from three games in the Group Stage of the 1974 World Cup on their way to their third-place finish, with their 7-0 thrashing of Haiti the most imposing.

A hat-trick from Andrzej Szarmach was added to by Grzegorz Lato (two), Jerzy Gorgon, and Kazimierz Deyna.

Turkey 7-0 Korea Republic – 1954

The 1954 World Cup was proved a great source of goals, with Turkey’s 7-0 drubbing of South Korea just one of a handful of games to end with a six-goal-plus margin.

In fact, in Group Two alone, 32 goals were scored across just four games between Turkey, Korea, West Germany and the great Hungary side of the time.
