The FIFA Club World Cup Tournament is one of the lesser watched club tournaments around the globe – despite it being supposed to be a bigger honour than any of Domestic, League or Continental League Cup. Still, an international football tournament such as this should be streaming on SonyLIV or at the very least, on Disney+ Hotstar. However, it turns out that Viacom managed to gain the Indian streaming rights for this tournament and it is available for viewing on their OTT platform – Voot Select.
Seven teams take part in the FIFA Club World Cup. The winners from the six continental competitions, as well as the host nation’s league champions – the United Arab Emirates being the host country of this tournament. The teams participating in this tournament are as follows:
AS Pirae – The Representatives from Oceania
