The World Cup always has shocking moments and there is sure to be more to come this year.
- Lampard's ghost goal (Richards: 10th, Shearer: 10th)
Germany finished third in the 2010 World Cup, losing to eventual winners Spain in the semi-finals
England were trailing 2-1 to Germany in a last-16 match at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Frank Lampard's shot then looped over the head of Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, clipped the underside of the crossbar and bounced over the goalline. But the officials said the ball had not gone in and the goal was not given, much to everyone's bafflement. A couple of years later, goalline technology was introduced.
- Roy Keane leaves World Cup (Richards: 8th, Shearer: 9th)
Roy Keane (right) described his first training session as being on a pitch that was "like a car park" in Japan
Republic of Ireland captain Roy Keane was sent home from the 2002 World Cup after falling out with manager Mick McCarthy. Keane had criticised the team's training facilities and programme in the build-up to the tournament and emotions spilled over in a meeting with his boss in Japan.
- Rivaldo dive (Richards: 9th, Shearer: 7th)
Rivaldo won the 2002 World Cup with Brazil in the same year he was shamed for an embarrassing dive
Rivaldo won the 2002 World Cup with Brazil but he was fined by Fifa and sparked outrage for an embarrassing dive in their group game against Turkey. Hakan Unsal fired the ball at Rivaldo's knee while he was taking his time over a corner and the Brazilian fell to the floor dramatically, holding his face. Unsal got sent off for it and Brazil went on to win 2-1. Rivaldo scored the winning penalty in the 87th minute.
- Suarez handball (Richards: 7th, Shearer: 8th)
Asamoah Gyan missed a penalty in the third minute of stoppage time at the end of extra time, before Uruguay won 4-2 in the penalty shootout to reach the World Cup semi-finals in 2010
Ghana were hoping to be the first African nation to reach a World Cup semi-final and were on the attack in the last minute of extra time as their thrilling 2010 quarter-final with Uruguay was tied at 2-2. Luis Suarez blatantly blocked Dominic Adiyiah's header off the line with his hand and was sent off but Asamoah Gyan could not take advantage. His penalty bounced off the crossbar with Suarez, watching on from the tunnel, wildly celebrating the miss. Ghana then lost the penalty shootout 4-2.
- Rijkaard spitting (Richards: 6th, Shearer: 5th)
The 1990 World Cup last-16 match between West Germany and the Netherlands was overshadowed by Dutch midfielder Frank Rijkaard spitting at Rudi Voller after the pair were sent off. West Germany went on to win 2-1 and won the tournament.
- Suarez bite (Richards: 5th, Shearer: 4th)
Uruguay advanced into the knockout stages of the 2014 World Cup after beating Italy in the group stage, although Luis Suarez would play no further part in the tournament
Luis Suarez took a bite out of Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini's shoulder in 2014. Chiellini pulled his shirt down to reveal teeth marks, while Suarez held his mouth in an attempt to look like he was the victim. He got away with it in the game, not even getting booked, as Uruguay won 1-0 but Suarez was then banned from all football-related activity for four months.
- Maradona drug test (Richards: 3rd, Shearer: 6th)
In 1994 Argentina superstar Diego Maradona tested positive for ephedrine and was expelled from the World Cup in the United States. In the aftermath, a picture of him celebrating a goal against Greece became infamous.
- The Hand of God (Richards: 2nd, Shearer: 3rd)
Argentina won the 1986 World Cup, with Diego Maradona winning the Golden Ball for being the player of the tournament
Argentina's talisman Diego Maradona scored twice in the 2-1 win over England in the 1986 World Cup quarter-final in Mexico City - the second one a truly brilliant individual run from inside his own half and the first, the infamous 'Hand of God.' With goalkeeper Peter Shilton coming off his line, Maradona got to the ball first and punched it into the net. England went out and Argentina went on to win the tournament.
- Zidane headbutt (Richards: 4th, Shearer: 1st)
Zinedine Zidane scored three goals in World Cup final matches - the same number as England's Geoff Hurst and Brazilian pair Vava and Pele
France midfielder and three-time Fifa World Player of the Year Zinedine Zidane had already announced he would retire after the 2006 World Cup and it appeared to be a fairytale ending as he converted an early penalty to put France ahead against Italy in the final. But Marco Materazzi equalised for Italy, then provoked Zidane in extra time with insulting comments and the Frenchman lost control, headbutting the defender and getting sent off. Italy won the penalty shootout 5-3.
- Ronaldo left out of the team (Richards: 1st, Shearer: 2nd)
Ronaldo went on to score two goals in the 2002 World Cup final as Brazil beat Germany
Brazil striker Ronaldo had been a star player during the 1998 World Cup but he suffered a convulsive fit a few hours before the final with France. He was taken to hospital and was dropped from the team, only to be reinstated at the last minute. Brazil went on to lose 3-0.
