14 teams remain. But not the European champions, or South American champions, or both finalists from last time.
Only 3 previous finals featured 2 teams still in this competition (call 1950 a "final"). But only one repeat final is possible (name the year?).
If you award 2 points to the winners and 1 to the runners-up, this "last 14" is missing 36 points worth of previous World Cup finalists. (This may or may not be a record, I'll copy your homework).
