The FIFA U-20 World Cup is the biennial football world championship tournament for FIFA members' men's national teams with players under the age of 20. The competition has been staged every two years since the inaugural tournament in 1977 when it was hosted by Tunisia^[1] under the tournament name of FIFA World Youth Championship until 2005.^[2] In 2007 the name was changed to its present form.
