B Correct answer
Explanation

This claim is completely false - the 1930 World Cup in Uruguay used standard leather footballs, not monkey skulls. The final match between Uruguay and Argentina was played with a proper ball, and there's no historical evidence of such a bizarre practice. This seems to be an urban legend or fabricated fact.
