FIFA has announced the match schedule for the Club World Cup Japan 2016, which will be played between December 8-18 and features the six continental club champions and a representative of the host nation.
The tournament will take place at the Suita City Football Stadium in Osaka and the International Stadium Yokohama, with the latter set to host the final having also previously been the venue for the deciding match of the 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan between Brazil and Germany.
The 2014 FIFA Club World Cup champions Real Madrid were the most recent club to book their ticket to Japan when they won the UEFA Champions League in May, with South America's representative to be determined when the Copa Libertadores final is played later this month. The two other confirmed participants are Club America (CONCACAF) and Auckland City FC (OFC) who both won their respective continental championships in April.
They will eventually be joined by the winners of the AFC Champions League winners and the CAF Champions League, as well as the J.League champions representing the host nation.
