At that time the CWC organized By FIFA still didn't existed There was another tournament that is considered a CWC but it only reunited the Champions from South America and Europe
For what it's worth, DC United also won all three tournament games outright... 8-0, 2-0, and 1-0... and beat two Mexican clubs in the process... and while DC United didn't get to qualify for the FIFA Club World Cup, they did play in the last version of the Copa Interamericana, against the South American Copa Libertadores winners, Brazil's Vasco da Gama. DC United won 2:1 over two legs (though the "away" leg wasn't in Brazil, but Florida).
Still find it hard to believe that when all of Dassler's shady dealings came out that Adidas weren't banned from bidding on FIFA contracts for a while.
There’s so much corruption within FIFA that this was probably just a small fish in the bigger pond. Seemed like anyone could do anything they wanted around this time
Adi Dassler was the founder of Adidas (hints the name AdiDas a mege of his name.), Horst was his son. Adi Dassler's brother actually also founded Puma after a huge fight.
Yeah, no one knows for sure what they fell out over, but it actually tore their small town apart. There was a river through the town and Adidas was on the north side so Puma got set up on the south side and basically the two halves of the town stopped talking to each other. Also, because they never made up, they were eventually buried on opposite ends of the town.
I'm assuming that DC United's CCL win in 1998 isn't being counted because the Club World Cup didn't exist at the time? Not to discount the LA Galaxy's miracle run in 2000 or them getting snubbed out of the 2001 CWC, but they weren't the first MLS team to lift that trophy.
Tbh, I somehow skipped over the fact DC won the Champions Cup in 98’. But yeah, the official FIFA Club World Cup/Championship didn’t come around till 2000, so this was the first qualification into that specific tournament. I’m not sure if DC qualified for anything from their 98’ win
DC United played Copa Libertadories champs Vasco de Gama in what I think was called the Continental Cup? They also won it. I know 90s era mls is often considered inferior (and rightfully so) but those DC United teams were stacked and could play with a lot of teams.
That year, there were tough teams around the world. I am not even betting on Real Madrid to beat Galaxy. The South American teams were even the best using the old FIFA CWC format.
Good video but I wouldn’t call the clubs involved obscure or unknown. All of the clubs are highly known and respected in their given country and region
Horst Dassler wasn't the founder of Adidas. And you also didn't describe how FIFA killed the Club World Cup Dreams, but how ILS did. But you still made a good video.
I just made a comment about Enyimba's back to back CAF champions league victories in 2003 and 2004 which coincidentally happened before restart at 2005. That team was like the Super Eagles dream team. The world missed it too. So I told him some countries suffered more, lol.
DC United boasting the likes of Marco Etcheverry, Jeff Agoos and JESSE MARSCH!? Jesse Marsch was barely a bench player and only played part in 15 games in 2 years. How about John Harkes, Jaime Moreno, Raul Diaz Arce. There was nothing boastful about having Marsch on the team.
Let's not forget that by reaching the final of the CONCACAF cup, Olimpia too qualified to the Club World Cup. So FIFA killed their world cup dream too 🤣🤣🤣
The founder of Adidas was actualy Adolf "Adi" Dassler .....not Horst Fun fact ...he did it alongside his brother Rudolph who went on to found Puma after they fell out with each other
i believe the Club World Championship and Club World Cup are actually 2 seperate tournaments ...the latter is not a continuation of the former ...it just replaced it They even have different trophys
This is wrong. Everybody knows the first team to win the CONCACAF Champions Cup was DC United back in 1998. This is because later they went on to play the Interamerican Cup against Brazilian giants Vasco Da Gama which att they had non other than Juninho Pernambucano (this guy: th-cam.com/video/73tjITqS23s/w-d-xo.html) and against all odds they actually managed to win it.
Lol Anthony LaRosa, LA Galaxy's story is not as big as Enyimba FC's back to back 2003 and 2004 victories that disappointed the biggest black Nation on Earth, Nigeria for seeing their strongest club go against the best in the world. Funny FIFA CWC restarted in 2005 and no Nigerian club has ever had the chance since. Did you know that the desire to play on the international stage was so much that the NFA had to invite Portsmouth FC, the English FA cup champion at one time to play Kano Pillars the League Champion? Of course, they were thrashed though, lol. They weren't on that Enyimba FC's level as it was in those hey days. My point is, FIFA f*d up, big time. Some countries even more than others. Well, today, I want FIFA to scrap their current format, and let the competing teams play out of two groups A and B like a normal tournament. I assure you, it won't be easy for the European teams that have the money and deep rosters. Makes the tournament more interesting. And it was the format of 2000 that made we begin watching club football round the world. You would be surprised that I know MLS clubs because I picked interest. But I bet you don't know more than 3 African clubs without using Google.
Important points besides DC united winning the concacaf champions they were also the best team in the MLS during those times, in the same region Olimpia from Honduras was a hot team that had good players and was meant to go after beating Pachuca from Mexico. The tournament in Brasil a year prior did happen but it was lame.
Galatasaray had become the first muslim labeled country to win Europa & Super cup against arsenal & Madrid. So when they had a chance to “win/paticipate” club World Cup they cut that shhh real quick.
0:52 an MLS team participating for the first time? I'm sure the rest of the world is really excited and is a reason for them to pay attention to this pointless competition 😂
Did you not realize this is a channel about MLS? Therefore the content is centered towards MLS viewers. Not really telling the rest of the world to care, speaking to MLS fans :)
@@Anthony.LaRosa think you could do a video on Wilfred Nancy, and the job he has going forward? Considering I also follow United, Nancy’s appointment (in the light of Ten Hag’s transformation) has me optimistic.
It's honestly so nice to know that Football (actually you guys call it soccer there but here we call it football 😅) in The US actually has a lot of supporters, i Hope that Football there gets better and better until one day maybe we can make a Good National Team and win The WC, it could take a while but it's my dream, I've never really been to the US as I came to Brazil when I was 2 but my dad always told me about how amazing the country is and he also told me a lot about Atlanta United, that I can't watch due to it not passing on TV here, but I still keep an eye out on the news and the match info, so I created a bond to the country and it's league even though I've basically never been there And i Hope the MLS continues growing to the point where it gets international relevance and it may actually be possible to see it here Well anyways thank you for making so much content about this Sport, my life isn't that easy and watching a football match is always something I'd resort to do when I had to refresh my mind, it's just something that may frustrate me sometimes but it's a sport I'll simply love forever, and i want for more people there to know how good this Sport is as well So thanks for making a channel based on this Sport that's basically a part of my life
Just like you, football is a part of my life too. I love the passion and stories the game develops world wide. I hope you're able to catch some of Atlanta's matches in the future!
DC United where actually the first MLS side to win the Concacaf Champions Cup in 98’ tho
Yeah that’s my bad
At that time the CWC organized By FIFA still didn't existed
There was another tournament that is considered a CWC but it only reunited the Champions from South America and Europe

Different tournament format
Dc United!!!!! 🥁🥁

The club World Cup is actually pretty cool ngl I like seeing how the quality of different regions compare
Mauricio Cienfuegos was an absolute most important piece.
Adi Dassler was the founder of Adidas (hints the name AdiDas a mege of his name.), Horst was his son. Adi Dassler's brother actually also founded Puma after a huge fight.

Clube World Cup exist since the Pele era...
It wasn’t made by Fifa and had other names/structures but was there.
@@DizzyMakavelli the original Club World Championship was a one off game between the champions of Europe and South America in Tokyo
@@farehamoxonian It was way before this...
This is Copa Toyota.

Wow, smh. We all know what would’ve happened anyway, Galaxy would’ve gone on to become the first MLS side to win Fifa Clubs World Cup.
That year, there were tough teams around the world. I am not even betting on Real Madrid to beat Galaxy. The South American teams were even the best using the old FIFA CWC format.
FIFA should bring back the 12 team format for the club world cup. Having just one team for each confederation is too small for representation
Good video but I wouldn’t call the clubs involved obscure or unknown. All of the clubs are highly known and respected in their given country and region
Absolutely! That's my bad for diminishing these clubs' successes.
@@Anthony.LaRosa no worries, the video was very good though. I found your channel today and I really enjoy the content you post, keep it up
he's american. anything not from the US is considered unknown because everyone knows everything from the US is better.
winning 3 matches in 5 days with 13 players??? id say NO other team would be up for that including Real Madrid
Just stumbled upon this channel. What a gem. Quality videos about interesting subjects. Nice work 👏 keep it up!
Appreciate it!
Horst Dassler wasn't the founder of Adidas. And you also didn't describe how FIFA killed the Club World Cup Dreams, but how ILS did. But you still made a good video.
So sad that they didn't even get paid..
8:13 Check out #3, he's like "damn #12 don't make me look short!"
Wild how Blatter, who was in charge until the mid 2010s, had to deal with the fallout of something set up by Havelange in the 60s
They Killed Olimpia's (Honduras) dream too. Thanks Fifa , I'm Motagua 😁
I just made a comment about Enyimba's back to back CAF champions league victories in 2003 and 2004 which coincidentally happened before restart at 2005. That team was like the Super Eagles dream team. The world missed it too. So I told him some countries suffered more, lol.
Never forget El gato Hartman, real mls OG
The only FIFA head that was more corrupt than Blatter, was Havelange…. But Blatter learned well from Hav!
I didn't even know about how much corruption was built into FIFA even before Blatter until I watched that Netflix documentary
2:10 Wrong! Adidas was founded by Adolf "Adi" Dassler! Horst Dassler later took charge of Adidas and continued the growth of the company
can those players do anything now? like a lawsuit to FIFA?
DC United boasting the likes of Marco Etcheverry, Jeff Agoos and JESSE MARSCH!? Jesse Marsch was barely a bench player and only played part in 15 games in 2 years. How about John Harkes, Jaime Moreno, Raul Diaz Arce. There was nothing boastful about having Marsch on the team.
Great video, very informative
Appreciate it!
MLS issue is there inability to play away games, well, away.
You're mixing up Adi and Horst Dassler. Horst was Adi's son, I believe. Adi was the brains behind the actual shoes.
COME ON YOU SOUNDERS
Rooting for y’all!
No chance seeing how poorly yall did this this in MLS
let’s hope the sounders win the MLS cup this year
@@Turtles9415 Nope, 0% chance seeing your guys performance.
Let's not forget that by reaching the final of the CONCACAF cup, Olimpia too qualified to the Club World Cup. So FIFA killed their world cup dream too 🤣🤣🤣
Sure. Same thing.
How was no one from Mexico arrested for fifagate
Up Da G’s 👽🔵⚪️🟡
The founder of Adidas was actualy Adolf "Adi" Dassler .....not Horst
Fun fact ...he did it alongside his brother Rudolph who went on to found Puma after they fell out with each other
How did we let sepp blater be pres this long
Chicharo, Costa, Vanney out ASAP
i believe the Club World Championship and Club World Cup are actually 2 seperate tournaments ...the latter is not a continuation of the former ...it just replaced it
They even have different trophys
What? No.
what's the music you use in this video?
Olímpia also qualified for the CWC alongside Galaxy
Wondering if getting the money would have meant that olimpia would have gotten a stadium by now
@@HugoJSL right now they announced that they are going to build the stadium, on the outskirts of Tegucigalpa, for 17k people aprox.
@@hectorherdocia yea I know hahahaha but I feel like it's a little bit too late. Better late than never, although I will miss tegus
Are you kidding me about FIFA destroyed Football itself did you watch the news whenever FIFA official got arrested
After you said Jesse marsch you lost me sorry 😂
To be fair, he was a lot better player than he was a coach. MLS has had more than it's share of good players who turned into shady coaches, imo.
Touring with hootie and the blowfish is no small feat tbh! 🐡 that’s honestly lit af
Maqwell brought me here.....Now I'm subscribed too 👍💪💯🏴

The intro is bizarre. Who hasn't heard of the Club World Cup?

You say Galaxy are the most successful, but DC has more trophies.
yea but currently, not too good.
How is that working our for ya?

uh-dee-dus? I thought all soccer fans knew it was adi-daas
And also they did is to Tigres
😂 they could have just booked at ticket to Madrid , Spain and it would have been the same result . Go and leave 😆
I already detest FIFA now I just have another reason

@@Anthony.LaRosa this is the first video I've watched from your channel so I didn't fully understand the context
@@lordpembridge303 You’re all good! Just wanted to fill you in. Glad you found the video
Who cares? We got to see Boca beat Madrid in the best club international final of all time
Hosrt Dassler wasnn´t the founder. He is the Son of the Founder of Adolf "Adi" Dassler. 😉
Glory to Columbus 🟡⚫️
As always :)
@@Anthony.LaRosa think you could do a video on Wilfred Nancy, and the job he has going forward? Considering I also follow United, Nancy’s appointment (in the light of Ten Hag’s transformation) has me optimistic.

Thank you for this information I already know, Dingbat.
Remember when FIFA killed LA Galaxy’s Club World Cup Dream? Nope
*promosm* 😊
??? who cares MLS is crap any way
lol
It's honestly so nice to know that Football (actually you guys call it soccer there but here we call it football 😅) in The US actually has a lot of supporters, i Hope that Football there gets better and better until one day maybe we can make a Good National Team and win The WC, it could take a while but it's my dream, I've never really been to the US as I came to Brazil when I was 2 but my dad always told me about how amazing the country is and he also told me a lot about Atlanta United, that I can't watch due to it not passing on TV here, but I still keep an eye out on the news and the match info, so I created a bond to the country and it's league even though I've basically never been there
And i Hope the MLS continues growing to the point where it gets international relevance and it may actually be possible to see it here
Well anyways thank you for making so much content about this Sport, my life isn't that easy and watching a football match is always something I'd resort to do when I had to refresh my mind, it's just something that may frustrate me sometimes but it's a sport I'll simply love forever, and i want for more people there to know how good this Sport is as well
