[noby]

I doubt Arbeloa has 5 never mind 50
And Mascherano has one. What question were you answering?

[HarpoJoyce]

Why was there no national anthemns played at the 1966 World Cup other than the opening match and the final.

If the answer is political. Is it because the PRK (North Korea) anthem would have to have being played?

Sorry rambler14, I need to call you on the third question. Three teams in the Intercontinental.....
The expanded tournament is the World Club Cup which began in 2000. With a gap til 2005. That where the other confederations joined.
http://www.fifa.com/tournaments/archive/tournament=107/index.html


The Intercontinental is the previous UEFA versus CONMEBOL two leg and then one match tournament.
Atletico Madrid, Borussia Moenchengladbach and Malmo (ff?) took the place of the European Cup Champions.

And I would imagine the second question is still open too.

[jebus]

[/B]

And here I was thinking that everyone would have heard of the Lisbon Lions at this stage :D

[Closed Account 2]

Good effort rambler14, you have the first and last ones correct.

Seond question, the Lisbon Lions have definately done it, but there is a more recent answer. Here is a clue - in fact there is controversy over the most recent team to do this, and one player links both teams and is the source of the controversy...

The third question, I'm referring to the "Toyota" cup, the competition played only between European and Latin American clubs. HarpoJoyce has it correct, but in fact there is a 4th? Anyone name that one?

[Soper]

11 players from same country question - FC Porto, and Deco?

[Flawless]

Porto had Derlei the Brazilian in their starting 11 in 2004.

[rambler14]

Aberdeen?

Nottingham Forest?

Marseille?

I'm leaning toward Steaua Buchareşt. With the player link being Georgie Hagi. 1986 final vs Barcelona.

[pineapple stu]

Witch ex Manchester United players's father scored against them in the final of a cup competition? (Hint re-read the question carefully for a clue)!
Is the clue to do with your poor punctuation? That'd make it Neville Neville. Or some other brothers' dad.

[rambler14]

The third question, I'm referring to the "Toyota" cup, the competition played only between European and Latin American clubs. HarpoJoyce has it correct, but in fact there is a 4th? Anyone name that one?

I think it's either Juventus or Panathinaikos. The name of AC Milan also popped up.

[Sheridan]

I know when Red Star won (in 1990, I think) the only foreigner in the team was the ethnic Serb defector Belodedici, but as he played in the 1994 World Cup for Romania he scarcely counts.
