    Uruguay won the first football World Cup (with home advantage), but I didn't expect it to be football either. In fact I still don't expect it to be the answer you want ....

    Its some club team who played in a tournament in Italy before the First World War. Was thinking Notts County, where Juve got their black and white stripes from, but think its much smaller club, Jarrow or something like that.
