Germany have lifted the World Cup and to mark the victory we look at five occasions where players from Fulham and Chelsea have been involved in the showpiece.
1966: ENGLAND 4 WEST GERMANY 2
Who can forget 1966? After all it's the only time we've won the trophy and since 1990 we haven't looked like getting close again.
Fulham's George Cohen played at right-back in the final at Wembley while captain Bobby Moore went on to play for the Whites in the mid-1970s.
It will of course be remembered as well probably for the most controversial 'goal' in World Cup history when Sir Geoff Hurst put the host nation ahead in extra-time when his shot hit the cross bar and bounced down on the line and the goal was awarded on the say so of USSR linesman Tofiq Bahramov.
Sir Geoff went on to score a hat-trick, netting his third in the dying moments of the match giving rise to one of the most sayings in English football courtesy of commentator Kenneth Wolstenholme: " And here comes Hurst. He's got...some people are on the pitch, they think it's all over. It is now."
Martin Peters was the other England player on target on the day while the German goals came from Halmut Haller and Wolfgang Weber, who grabbed an 89th minute equaliser to force extra time.
1998: BRAZIL 0 FRANCE 3
Chelsea duo Marcel Desailly and Frank Leboeuf formed the central defensive partnership that gave France the World Cup on home soil.
The triumph came just prior to Desailly joining the Blues that summer, moving from Milan for £4.6m and going on to captain the side until the end of the 2003-04 season.
Desailly saw red 20 minutes before the end but by then the French were already two goals to the good.
All the build up was dominated by the fitness of Brazil striker Ronaldo amid reports he had suffered a pre-match fit and he missed a golden chance to equalise after Zinedine Zidane had given the hosts the lead.
Zidane scored his second on the stroke of half-time before Emmanuel Petit, then playing for the Blues London rivals Arsenal, slotted home a third.
2006: ITALY 1 FRANCE 1 (AET - ITALY WON 5-3 ON PENS)
Chelsea's William Gallas and Claude Makelele were part of the French team that paid the penalty in Germany.
French captain Zinedine Zidane, who had given his side the lead, became the fourth player to be sent off in a World Cup final and the firs to do so in extra-time when he headbutted Marco Materazzi, who scored Italy's equaliser.
Makelele was also booked along with Florent Malouda, who would join the Blues the following summer before neing released at the end of the 2013 season.
So it came down to spot-kicks and the Italians managed a perfect five out of five while substitute David Trezeguet's miss with the second penalty ended up proving costly for the French.
2010: NETHERLANDS 0 SPAIN 1 (AET)
More Chelsea players got their hands on the World Cup in 2010 when Barcelona's Andres Iniesta grabbed the winner for the Spanish in extra time.
Both Fernando Torres, then with Liverpool, and new Blues signing Cesc Fabregas, who was with London rivals Arsenal at the time, came off the bench to help their team to glory.
On the other side for the Dutch was former Fulham defender John Heitinga, who saw red in extra time for two bookable offences, current Whites goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg and ex-Blue Arjen Robben.
Robben was also booked by referee Howard Webb in what was a bad tempered match that saw 14 yellow cards dished out, including the two to Heitinga.
Fabregas set up the winner and he was involved in the controversial moment prior to the goal when a Dutch free kick appeared to strike him in the wall before going behind but a goal kick was awarded.
The Dutch did however regain possession briefly between play restarting and Iniesta scoring but it did not stop the Dutch letting their feelings known to Webb.
2014: GERMANY 1 ARGENTINA ) (AET)
And so we have another Chelsea World Cup winner.
Andre Schurrle and the Germans got their hands on the trophy by beating Lionel Messi and Argentina 1-0 after extra time.
And Schurrle came off the bench after just 30 minutes for the injured Christoph Kramer and set up the winner for fellow substitute Mario Götze.
Schurrle has played his part right throughout the tournament scoring Germany's opening goal in the narrow 2-1 second round victory over Algeria and he featured in every match from the bench besides the 2-2 draw with Ghana in the group stages.
And now he has his hands on the greatest prize of all in world football.
