He Club World Cup 2025 It will be a milestone in the history of football. It will be the first with 32 teamsas the men’s team world championship was known until Qatar 2022. And that’s where it wants to go Mouth, which appeals to the ranking created by FIFA specifically to determine some places for each confederation, because they have not qualified for the current edition of the Copa Libertadores. This Thursday, the Nacional of Uruguay put an obstacle to this illusion, because it advanced to the group stage, which could mean that it will join it in that ranking, if it achieves a performance that would be historic.
El Bolso had to suffer until the penalties against the Bolivian Always Ready. They had lost 1-0 away and won 2-1 in Uruguay in injury time and with one player less due to the expulsion of Diego Polenta, and then won the definition by twelve steps (5-4) with the last transformation by Rubén Bentancourt.
Why is this ‘bad’ news for Boca? It has to do with this already famous ranking. Conmebol has six spots for this event to be held in the United States. For its assembly, the score obtained between the Copa Libertadores of 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 is taken into consideration.
Palmeiras, Flamengo AND Fluminense They are already classified as champions of the last three editions of the tournament. The champion of this edition will win a place, while the other two will be rewarded based on their position in the CONMEBOL rankings.
Based on the ranking they can only be classified two teams for each country unless the winning team of the Libertadores repeats itself, as happened with the three Brazilian champions of the last three editions.
The others who would be classified so far are Boca (71 points), River (64) and Olimpia (57) although the 2024 edition has yet to be played.
Very distant, for now, are Nacional from Uruguay (40), Independiente del Valle (38), Barcelona from Ecuador (37) and Cerro Porteño from Paraguay (37).
