The final match of the first FIFA Club World Championship ever, disputed in Brazil, pitted the two Brazilian clubs which were playing the tournament, Corinthians and Vasco da Gama. After a goalless draw during the 120 minutes, Corinthians won the penalty shoot-out 4–3, becoming the first club to lift the FIFA Club World Cup. It is note-worthy that Corinthians are the only-ever World Champions to beat a side from their home country in the final.
