The war wasn't a football war, it is just called that way because during that time, there was an extremely important football match that El Salvador war. It was caused mainly by the tensions between the borders of both countries. There was a great number of salvadorians living in Honduras and the salvadorian economy was better.
The war was pretty short.

Yes. Two South American countries went to war after a disputed game. Will find out which countries.
The war was about to break out before the particular incident. The condition was very critical between the two countries before this event happened. In 1950's and 60's, when El Salvador got intensely populated especially those areas that were near Honduras. The people thus started to move towards the less populated lands of Honduras. In 1960's era, Honduras military forces were ordered to drive the illegal strangers out of the country forcefully which lead to an intense massacre. El Salvador government took notice of this and tension began to build between the two countries. At San Salvador in 1969, a FIFA World cup match was being played when situation became worse because of the conflict between El Salvador and Honduras audience. The condition go on becoming more and more worse and at last El Salvador declared against Honduras on 14th July, 1969. At the end of the war, 10,000 people were killed and about 30,000 were injured and disabled.
