It used to be confederation champions but like the world cup, FIFA is all about money so it's been extended to teams who have done well over time. And Messi which is why Miami are involved.

NSL sides would often win the Oceania club championship. Ange won it with south Melbourne and they played Manchester united.

Back in the 80's it was a one off game between the European cup winners and the south American champions, I think called the intercontinental cup.

It was called the Toyota cup a 1 off game in Japan between the champions of Europe & the Champions of South America.

Was only Toyota and Japan from about 1980.

From 1960 to 1979 it was over 2 legs, and up to 1967 was points based and had a playoff game if needed.

It's not Auckland FC from the a league. It's an NPL level side of semi pros, half of who didn't travel because they couldn't get time off from their day jobs.

They get to play against Bayern, Benfica and Boca Juniors.

I'd rate them to roll this year's mariners team.

Well, I was driving and didnt give it much thought when I heard it on the radio. I just liked the idea of a cashed up A League team getting flogged
