Talk:2006 FIFA Club World Cup

The name should be FIFA Club World Championship and follow FIFA World Cup, the article should be called 2006 FIFA Club World Championship Matt86hk talk 05:25, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The 2006 format will be the same as 2005. The J-League champion will not be invited this year. FIFA will review the format after the 2006 competition.

Bracket information[edit]

Information about the bracket seems to be incorrect. FIFA has not drawn the quarter-finals yet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Leobertozzi (talkcontribs)

At the point the bracket was first added to this article, FIFA had the bracket on their site as shown here, afterwards FIFA changed the information on their website to what it is now.

I'll edit the article now, though it may need some clean-up afterwards, I'm not the best at laying things out properly - MTC 05:23, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

December 13 stadium[edit]

Please stop changing the stadium from dec13 to the National Stadium in Chofu (東京スタジアム, also known as Ajinomoto). I went to the game and it was the National Stadium in downtown Tokyo! There are many "national stadiums" (国立競技場) around here: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%9B%BD%E7%AB%8B%E7%AB%B6%E6%8A%80%E5%A0%B4 the one where the game took place was 国立霞ヶ丘陸上競技場, the Olympic Stadium in Kasumigaoka (shinjuku-ku). I still have the ticket and I can upload a photo of it showing that the stadium is marked as 国立競技場 and not 東京スタジアム. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 124.101.236.247 (talk) 06:30, 22 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

stadium web site: http://www.naash.go.jp/kokuritu/index.html stadium schedule: http://www.naash.go.jp/kokuritu/rikujyou_event1.html event for december 13, 2006: "FIFAクラブワールドカップジャパン2006 準決勝"

The official FIFA match reports for the games in Tokyo ([1] [2] [3]) all say they were in "The National Stadium, TOKYO", so if one of the games were in the Olympic Stadium, then all of those games were in the Olympic Stadium, and the article should be changed to reflect that.
Based on this article on FIFA's website and the wikipedia article on the Olympic Stadium, the stadium used in the tournament was indeed the Olympic Stadium, and I will now edit the article to reflect this. - MTC 07:16, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, the stadium schedule at http://www.naash.go.jp/kokuritu/rikujyou_event1.html shows that there were games on the 11th, 13th, and 15th there. The confusing part must have been the number of stadiums here in Tokyo are called "National Stadium." It's confusing, and I almost ended up going to the wrong stadium in Yokohama myself. - 203.141.92.13 09:52, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
