New FIFA Club World Cup - 32 Teams & A Fantasy FIFA EuroCopa Champions Cup

[OllieDrew]

I have created a realistic 32 team FIFA Club World Cup as scheduled in real life that's happening in 2025. This tournament has been a nightmare to create on the original ID number of 121092 in the game. Issues with trying to arrange host nations, fixtures, stadiums and awards etc are fixed with this trophy, which caused me to duplicate the trophy to break the cycle and create a new ID number of 2000228931.

The tournament draw is on July 4th and starts on July 6th. Group games finish on the 17th. The last 16 Knockout Round on the 20th, Quarter-Finals on the 25th, Semi-Finals on the 29th, Third-Place Play-Off on August 1st and Final on August 3rd. I have tried to condense the final stages closer together but have tried all different permutations and it’s the best I can achieve. 

The tournament starts in 2022 for one season with designated teams then from 2023 every two years. I still had issues with breaking the ID number with host nations and stadiums so I decided to create one host nation every tournament [United States] whose stadiums occupy the Third Place Play Off and Final. Each group has been designated a Country or nation with specific stadiums for each group. The Round Of Sixteen, Quarter-Finals & Semi-Finals has been designated stadiums from around the world. The Group stadiums and play-offs for every tournament are as follows;

 

Group A:  [United Kingdom] Croke Park, Celtic Park, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Principality Stadium, London Stadium, Wembley.

Group B:  [Brazil & Argentina]  Morumbi, El Gasometro, Arena BRB, Estadio Centenario, Mas Monumental, Maracana.

Group C:  [Europe]  Estadio Da Luz, Stade De France, Olimpico, Santiago Bernabeu, Delli Alpi, Spotify Camp Nou.

Group D:  [Africa]  Stade Olympique, Stade Olympique Du 5 Juliet, Borg El-Arab Stadium, Stade Leopold Sedar Senghor, Grande Stade De Casablanca, FNB Stadium.

Group F:  [Japan]  Ajinomoto Stadium, Edion Stadium, Japan National Stadium, ECOPA Stadium, Saitama Stadium, Nissan Stadium.

Group G:  [North America]  Estadio Tigres De La UNAL, Olympic Stadium, Estadio Olimpico Universitario, Commonwealth Stadium, Estadio Azteca, Estadio BBVA.

Group H:  [Asia]  National Stadium, Kai Tak Sports Park, Stadium Australia, Eden Park, Jakarta International Stadium, Stadium Nasional Bukit Jalil.

 

Round Of 16:  Lusail Iconic Stadium, Cairo International Stadium, Stadium Shah Alam, Olympiastadion Berlin, Gelora Bung Karno, Puskas Arena , Ataturk Olimpiyat Stadyumu, Signal Iduna Park.

I have also created a tournament to run in the years the FIFA Club World Cup is not played.

The tournament structure as regards to stadiums follows the same structure as the FIFA Club World Cup and is as devised as follows:

 

2024 onwards every 2 years;

Pot 1:  Europe [8 teams]  Previous winners or runners-up of Champions League, Europa League & Europa Conference League.

*If you would like the graphics I have create for the FIFA Europa Champions Cup please message me. The backgrounds, logos etc I use for the FIFA Club World Cup are not mine to share.

 

**Both tournaments have been tested in the Pre-Game Editor to 2041 and work fine.

 

***Some dates for competitions might differ depending on what competitions you have loaded.

 

****Some stadiums I have used in the Pre-Game editor might have changed their name in the game.

 

Please enjoy and if you have any ideas to improve the tournaments drop me a line and I will try to incorporate these into the games.

No bud no clashes with any other tournaments. Ive started it in late July but some players might be unavailable due to resting from International duty etc. The Eurocopa is much smaller competition and made it that way not to clash with International competitions. If anything appears wrong I can amend to suit. The FIFA Club World Cup was a nightmare to create so many hurdles to sort out but got there in the end. It is almost impossible to re-create on it's original ID number as it is fixed and you can'y alter anything. I had to totally start from scratch with new ID number and even then the stadiums for a host nation don't work that's why I fixed the stadiums for every tournament. Even now iv'e found some small changes I need to make will update soon to a version 1.1 once I'm happy with it.

hey dude

can you do FIFA Club World Cup 16 teams

[moz1980]

Any chance of getting the world club cup in a XML format ? just compress and save in the editor

[themodelcitizen]

What sorts of issues were you getting with the original ID? I was able to alter the format and such but not the hosts, it would pick a semi-random host for every edition (even if you set "specific stadium" or "host nation" elsewhere). I think I had to keep it on flexible format rules. I used "clear current list of qualified teams" to get rid of whatever hardcoded qualifying was going on in the background (i.e. in the various Champions Leagues) but I think you could use that to your advantage for the quadrennial version (just like the 24-team 2025 version in-game)
