Soccer was first played as an official Olympic competition in 1908. Great Britain won the Gold that year.
The mascot for the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France was a cockerel (or rooster) named Footix.
Unlike the Olympics, FIFA recognizes the four Home Nations of the United Kingdom - England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland- as separate entities.
