No.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Is it related to geography?

 

[Furball]

Yes.

 

[Pothas]

Related to winning the world cup outside their home continent?

This may have too much to do with World Cup performances, but Brazil because:

1. The only team to have won the World Cup on a continent that wasn't their own
2. The only Cup-winning country never to have won a World Cup that it hosted

 

[Pothas]

Also the only country to have played in every tournament.

 

[The Sean]

Yeah, that's actually a much more obvious one TBH!

Picture round.

I'm looking for the names of the 3 players, and what connects the three.

Clue: The answer to picture 3 isn't Sir Alex Ferguson.

Do you want the players names first up, or want it all as a complete answer.... Can name the players, but need to ask questions to find out what the **** they have linked!

Q) Is the link to do with international football?

Yeah, it is - but for the purpose of these bits of trivia The Americas is always just considered one continent.
