Will the influence of the Club World Cup surpass the Champions League in the future?

After the restructuring of the Club World Cup, the scale has been similar to that of the World Cup, and it has expanded into 32 teams, each session in four years.

The first round of the Club World Cup this year was played. In terms of attendance, the strong dialogue exceeded expectations. The number of people on the game against Atletico Madrid reached more than 80,000, and Miami also exceeded 60,000 people on the field against Cairo Nationals. As a country that is not so enthusiastic about football, the attendance rate is already very good.

I think after the reform of the Club World Cup, its influence may surpass the Champions League in the future. The value of the Club World Cup championship will also surpass the Champions League championship, becoming the most important champion that the club can get. There are three main reasons:

1. After the reform, the schedule is more formal and complete. The predecessor of the Club World Cup was the Toyota Cup (1980-2004), sponsored by Toyota, Japan, and held in Tokyo, Japan in December every year. There is only one game. Both parties are the Champions League champions and the South American Liberators Cup.

Later I felt unsatisfied, and there were too few two teams, so I became champions + hosts on six continents, similar to the Federation Cup at the national team level. Although

is a collision between champions of various continents, due to the polar pattern of world football, European and South American teams can basically win the finals, and teams from other continents are just running with each other, so its attention is average, just a pre-World Cup pre-warming up like the Federation Cup.

But after the reform, the Club World Cup was completely different. Each year, with 32 teams, the final champion had to play seven games. The Champions League champion was no longer the first round bye and then directly played in the semi-finals as before. This became more specific and formal. The monthly exam suddenly changed to the final exam. So shouldn’t the participating teams take it seriously?

2, gave teams in other continents more opportunities to challenge the Champions League championships

The reorganized Club World Cup has gathered the championship and runner-ups of each continent in the past four years, which gave teams in other continents many opportunities to challenge European teams. In this Club World Cup, American teams performed extremely hard. First, the venue was held in the United States, which was half the home court. Second, European football is currently the dominant player in the world football world. South American teams, which once competed with Europe, are gradually declining due to economic reasons. They are eager to find the game through the Club World Cup.

This Club World Cup, the South American Liberators Cup champions Fruminense, Flamengo, Botafigo and Palmeiras have been all in the past four years to encircle European teams, and the best time to prove themselves has come. Therefore, the South American team is very excited. European teams, especially Real Madrid and Manchester City, are a little excited, but their strong strength and star quality will still help one of them reach the final. If the final is a UEFA Champion VS South American Liberators Cup champion in the past four years, the ratings will definitely set a record high in the Club World Cup.

3, the topic is full, and more powerful dialogues will give birth to new grudges, love and hatreds,

Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes. The more people, the more stories will be born. After the expansion of the Club World Cup, the teams that were never able to meet were given a chance to compete. For example, South American giants such as River Plate, Boca, Palmeiras, Flamenco, Sao Paulo and other European giants collided with passionate collisions with Real Madrid, Chelsea, Barcelona, ​​Liverpool and other European giants. Who is stronger in the Champions League championship in the past four years? The Club World Cup gave them a stage to PK, and now Guan Gong can really fight against Qin Qiong. The increase in the number of strong dialogues will surely give birth to countless historical famous games like the World Cup. Like Maradona's tears in 1990, Baggio's back in 1994, Beckham's eternal injustice in 1998, etc. will all become classic moments in history, remembered and savored by countless fans.
