![]() A Brief History Of The Intercontinental Cup The winners of the UEFA Champions League in Europe and the Copa Libertadores in South America contest the Intercontinental Cup. After a promising start, the competition became dogged by foul play in the late 1960s. Indeed, by the 1970s some European teams were unwilling to take part. AFC Ajax started the trend in 1971 and 1973, with FC Bayern München (1974) and Liverpool (1977) following suit, while the 1975 competition did not take place at all. The decision to play the match in Tokyo on a one-off basis from 1981 on breathed new life into the competition, with Nacional of Uruguay winning the first such encounter in 1981, when they overcame Nottingham Forest FC. The first European winners in Tokyo were Juventus FC, who defeated Argentinos Juniors on penalties in 1985. From 2005 the Intercontinental Cup was replaced by the FIFA Club World Cup which also includes North American, Asian, African and Oceanian winners. |
