FIFA Confederations Cup 1992 to 2017
The FIFA Confederations Cup is an football tournament for national teams, currently held every four years by FIFA. It is contested by the winners of each of the six FIFA confederation championships (UEFA, CONMEBOL, CONCACAF, CAF, AFC, OFC), along with the FIFA World Cup winner and the host nation, to bring the number of teams up to eight. The tournament was originally organised by and held in Saudi Arabia and called the King Fahd Cup and was contested in 1992 and 1995 by the Saudi national side and various continental champions. The 2021 was meant to be held in Qatar, the venue of the 2022 FIFA world cup. However the tournament was abolished due to concerns over Qatar’s high temperatures during the summer period.
