FIFA FAIR PLAY Award: England still in the Lead 02.07.98 13h56 CET After the Round of 16, England (who were eliminated by Argentina) are still leading the FIFA Fair Play competition.
Traditionally, the FIFA Fair Play Award is awarded to the team with the best record of fair play according to a points system and criteria established by the FIFA Fair Play Committee. Four years ago, Brazil won this prize (which has been in existence since 1978) for the third time.
Only teams that play at least four matches of the World Cup final competition are eligible to win the Fair Play contest. The overall assessment of a team during the final competition is calculated by adding the points attained at each match and dividing this figure by the number of matches played.
