This is a joke. I searched for Greece (from USA) and the FIFA page of Greece vs S Korea match is #1.

Do you think maybe number 1 is not the end of all searches moving forward? I found quite a bit of information on the country when I searched, and skipping over the first result was fairly easy for me, so maybe they expect people will actually start reading a bit more of the page to find things or something if they rank the right results for everyone somewhere on the page?

I doubt if the end user really cares that they had to look at the results below the indented FIFA links to find information on the country, in fact, I would guess the average end user could care less what number the result they were looking for was at, or even if it was an ad, as long as they can find what they're looking for somewhere on the page.
