He set up at Under-17 and Under-20 levels, which could be staged in football's less traditional nations. The World Cup was expanded from 16 teams to 24 and then to 32, with more places for nations in the new confederations. And they voted for Havelange, who became FIFA's first non-European president. In the 1974 FIFA Congress, for the first time, Africa had more votes than Europe.

That spurred Joao Havelange, then-president of the Brazilian football association, to put together a new alliance - South America with Africa and some of Asia. There was already discontent in Africa and Asia, which had had one slot between them in the 1966 edition, and only one each in the next competitions. South America came away from the 1966 World Cup, staged in England, with a bitter taste in its mouth, complaining that the tournament had been loaded against them. Europe and South America started to go their separate ways in the late 1960s. UEFA and CONMEBOL partnering together is the latest chapter in an previously tense relationship. The objective at the moment is to form a block of football's two most traditional continents in opposition to the biannual World Cup.

And initially, CONMEBOL (South America's governing organisation) appeared interested in the new idea. Why? UEFA (Europe's governing body for the sport) has been against the idea of a biennial World Cup from the beginning - fearing that it is an attempt to grab some of the revenue normally generated by the continent's club football. And this new Europe-South America alliance threatens the very foundations of FIFA. This, of course, is a reaction to FIFA president Gianni Infantino's plan to stage the World Cup every two years. South America is now back with Europe - a new alliance symbolised by the idea of a Nations League involving both continents. The tectonic plates of world soccer are shifting again. Will Europe-South America plan to curb FIFA's World Cup revamp do more harm than good? Tim Vickery, South America correspondent
