The2006 FIFA Club World Cup(officially known as theFIFA Club World Cup Japan 2006 presented by Toyotafor sponsorship reasons) was afootballtournament held inJapanbetween 10 and 17 December 2006. It was the thirdFIFA Club World Cup.

The club champions from each of the six confederations played in a knockout tournament. The quarter-final match-ups were determined by a draw including theAFC,CAF,CONCACAFandOFCchampions, while theUEFAandCONMEBOLchampions were given byes to the semi-finals. The losers of the quarter-finals would play for the fifth place, while the losers of the semi-finals were to play in a third-place play-off.

Defending championsSão Paulowere beaten in the2006 Copa Libertadores Finalsby fellow Brazilian sideInternacional,who went on to win the Club World Cup for the first time, beatingAl Ahlyin the semi-finals before defeating Spanish clubBarcelona1–0 in thefinal.

A team from the host nation did not participate, as was initially proposed. Following the departure ofAustraliafrom the OFC, the Oceanian representative,Auckland City,was fully amateur, so forcing them to play a play-off for a place in the quarter-finals against theJ. Leaguechampions (Gamba Osaka) was considered, which would have also promoted local interest. The change would have also eliminated the fifth-place play-off, to keep the number of games intact. This was finally rejected, but the tournament format was changed for2007.[1]
