    Confederation Cup will be played in France in the year 03, countries qualify for the tournament
    France-host, defending Euro00 champion, defending Confederation champion
    Conmebol= Colombia
    CAF= Cameroon
    Concacaf Gold Cup=USA
    AFC= Japan
    OFC= New Zealand
    World Cup Champion Brazil
    The other will be a invited team
    The invited country in my opinion should be Portugal, first they have no official games until 04, second they have a population over 1.5 million portuguese leaving in France, second they were one of the top teams in 00.
    like to hear from your guys.
    a rematch of the USA vs Portugal, can happen.

    Frank III,

    I haven't heard much about this Cup lately.
    Portugal would be a great candidate.

    Keep us informed, thanks.

    That is a good argument. I would also think Senegal is a strong possibility, with their population in France, and a ossible rematch of France - Senegal.

    I was disappointed, the US was one of the finalists to host it, and would have put on a good tournament.
