  1. I only saw the Esperance links to him Btw, I REALLY wanted Raja Casablanca to beat Bayern in the 2013 FIFA World Club Cup final! Would have helped remove the disgrace of our shameful 2012 FWCC final defeat to Corinthians, grrrrr.
  2. And the newly revived FIFA Intercontinental Cup. The only major post WWII European-wide club trophies we cannot get are the old defunct Intertoto Cup and the old defunct Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. If you really want to get into the weeds in terms of 'global club champions' then there were 3 other tournaments contested post WWII. All 3 are the subjects of much controversy, especial in Brasil, but also (in terms of the Small World Cup) with Real Madrid, Barca, and the Colombian side Millonarios (all 3, plus the Brasilian winners claim world clup titles). 1. Copa Rio (held twice, 1951 and 1952, with Palmeiras in 1951 and Fluminense in 1952 winning it) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copa_Rio_(international_tournament) 2. Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer (held once, 1953, won by Vasco da Gama) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torneio_Octogonal_Rivadavia_Correa_Meyer 3. The Small World Cup https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_Club_World_Cup The Small World Cup (Spanish: Pequeña Copa del Mundo) was a football tournament held in Venezuela between 1952 and 1975 (with some journalists considering 1952–57 the period of greatest relevance, and the second period that took place between 1963 and 1975 as of minor relevance). snip There were 2 even more obscure post WWII attempts at a world club championship: 1. The (mainly 1953 and 1954 are of import, but there were 4 other later editions: 1969, 1970, 1971, and 1978) Montevideo Cup https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copa_Montevideo And finally.... 2. The Taça Charles Miller, held in 1955 in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/charlesmiller55.html
