Football tournament
The
FIFA Confederations Cup
was an international
association football
competition established in 1992 as the King Fahd Cup and known as the FIFA Confederations Cup from 1997 to 2017. It was contested by eight
men's national teams
of the members of
Federation Internationale de Football Association
(FIFA), the sport's global governing body, who qualified by winning their respective continental tournaments. The Confederations Cup final matches were the last of the competition, and the results determine which country's team were declared champions. If after 90 minutes of regular play the score is a
draw
, an additional 30-minute period of play, called
extra time
, was added. If such a game is still tied after extra time it is decided by kicks from the penalty mark, commonly called a
penalty shoot-out
. The winning penalty shoot-out team were then declared champions.
In the ten tournaments held, 33 nations have
appeared at least once
. Of these, thirteen made it to the final match, and six had won. With four titles,
Brazil
was the most successful team. The other former champions were
France
, with two titles, and
Argentina
,
Denmark
,
Mexico
and
Germany
with one title each. The competition was cancelled in 2019 and replaced with an expanded
FIFA Club World Cup
.
