Comments:

Having attempted to qualify for the first time in 1998, Uzbekistan had now become the 84th nation to compete at a FIFA World Cup tournament. . The last 18 nations making their debut appearance at a FIFA World Cup finals had now failed to win, since Senegal against the then reigning champions France in 2002 (lost 14). . Fabio Cannavaro had now won a Ballon d'Or and participated at a FIFA World Cup tournament as both a player and manager: also achieved by Franz Beckenbauer, Oleg Blokhin, and Marco van Basten.
