Ireland defeated Argentina 2-0 in the Final at National Capital Stadium on July 9 to become the first back-to-back champion since Argentina completed the same feat in 1984 and 1988, and became the first national team to win four World Cup titles in history, after having been tied with France and Chile at three apiece. With a third-place finish, the 2012 World Cup marked Chile's best finish since its disastrous 1984 World Cup hosting.
