The 16th FIFA Club World Cup takes place this week in Qatar, with the final on the 21st December. Liverpool, as UEFA Champions are involved. hence their second team offering to play in the highly prestigious Carabao Cup tonight.
The teams involved in this year's CWC "finals" are:
Flamengo of Brazil representing CONMEBOL,
Al-Hilal of Saudi Arabia AFC,
Esperance de Tunis of Morocco CAF,
Monterrey of Mexico CONCACAF,
Hienghene Sports of New Caledonia OFC (where is this? you may ask)
Al-Sadd of Qatar who are the HOSTS. Only 7 teams are taking part.
Quite simply the riff raff play "quarter-finals" and Liverpool go straight to the semis with Flamengo where they meet Monterrey at the Khalifa Stadium on Doha on the 18th December. The Mexicans will have played one match already.
The final is on the 21st.
