*****Sepahan earns the right to play Urawa on 10 December

I've watched the match.. Milan and Boca will surely have problems beating Sepahan

Really poor goalkeepers (but I heard the one of Sepahan wasn't the 1st keeper) for both teams

I didn't get to see the match and I don't really know much about either of those clubs. But now the real tournament starts on the 9th. The match today was just a qualifying match for the last club.

Tomorrow there'll be the first match of the quarter-finals Etoile Sportive du Sahel - Pachuca but it's like at 5:45am I wanted to watch it

pachuca-etoile du sahel 0-1

the semifinal will be Boca -sahel

*****Urawa earns the right to play AC Milan on 13 December

so, is this a mini tournament, involving one team from each continent then?

Urawa beat Sepahan - again.

Sydney FC were in this last year but we (Australia) have moved to the Asian Confederation obviously.

That is correct. But it involves the Champion of that continent/zone. Brief overview on how each team reached this tournament is in the first post.

Boca can't win.

Don't care who'll win...

but can't be Boca.
