FIFA announced today that the first phase of ticket sales for the FIFA Club World Cup Japan 2011presented by TOYOTA will kick off on 11 September exclusively on FIFA.com. Tickets will be available in this initial phase until 25 September.
The seventh edition FIFA Club World Cup, scheduled to be played from 8 to 18 December 2011, will take place in the Japanese cities of Yokohama and Toyota City. The competition will feature CF Monterrey of Mexico (CONCACAF Champions League winners), Santos FC of Brazil (CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores winners), Auckland City FC of New Zealand (OFC Champions League winners), FC Barcelona of Spain (UEFA Champions League winners) as well as the winners of this year’s AFC Champions League, the CAF Champions League winners and a club from Japan’s J.League representing the host nation.
However, if a Japanese team wins the AFC Champions League, the J League champions will be replaced by the highest placed non-Japanese team from the 2011 edition of the AFC Champions League. Both the AFC and CAF competitions are currently at the quarter final stage, with the respective finals to be held in mid-November.
