Due to the success of the Olympic Football Tournaments, FIFA President Jules Rimet with driving force, and began again to consider staging your own international tournament outside the Olympic Games. 28 May 1928 decided the FIFA Congress in Amsterdam; organize a world championship organized by FIFA. with Uruguay now two times world champion was in football (in 1924, the beginning of the era of professional FIFA) and its centenary of independence celebrated in 1930, FIFA named Uruguay as the host opening event at the World Cup.

The national associations of the selected countries were invited to send a team, but the choice of Uruguay as a venue for the competition meant a long and costly trip across the Atlantic Ocean for European sides. In fact, no European country pledged a team to send up to two months before the start of the competition. Rimet eventually persuaded teams from Belgium, France, Romania and Yugoslavia to make the journey. A total of thirteen countries: seven from South America, four from Europe and two in North America.

The first two games of the 13th World Cup was also July 1930 and were held by France and the United States, Mexico, which won 4-1 and 3-0, respectively in Belgium.

In this stage of the sport is rarely played outside the United Kingdom. Football has started to increase in popularity in other parts of the world at the turn of the century, as a demonstration sport at the no medals in 1900 and 1904 Summer Olympics (but the IOC awarded was expected, updated its status retroactively for the official events) and the interludes of 1906.

Lipton invited West Auckland, an amateur side from County Durham, England, to represent instead. West Auckland won the tournament and returned in 1911, successfully defending her title and received the trophy for ever according to the rules of competition to hold.

In 1914, FIFA has decided to recognize the tournament as World Cup "for football fans," and took responsibility for managing the event. This paved the way for the first intercontinental football competition of the Olympic Summer Games of 1920, Egypt and thirteen European teams contested and won by Belgium. Uruguay won the next two Olympic Football Tournaments in 1924 and 1928.
