For the inaugural WC in 1930, Uruguay was chosen as the host nation owing to the fact that they had won the 1928 Olympic Gold and also, the year coincided with the 100th year of Uruguay's independence.

Due to a dispute, a different ball was used in each half, one chosen by each team. Argentina's ball - left, was used for the first half, and Uruguay's ball, right, was used for the second half.
when Uruguay won the first world cup there was this stupid rule of using home and away balls so Uruguay were down by a few goals while using the away balls but after the first half they used the home balls and emerged winners resulting in a great controversy later on
saw this in another quiz hope my ans is right
Ball number 1: Provided for the first half by Argentina
Ball number 2: Provided for the second half by Uruguay.
argentina ball was used in first half & uruguay ball in the second half.
