BOCA JUNIORS NUMBER 1 !

A few days before IFFHS will announce THE WORLD'S BEST CLUBS OF THE SECOND DECADE (2011-2020), we publish to remember the results of the Rankings of the First Decade (2001-2010). The outcome of the South America Club Ranking is similar to the World Club Ranking, taking in consideration all the results of each club (annual IFFHS World Club Ranking) in the ten years of the Decade.


CA River Plate and Sao Paulo FC ( here the teams in 2005) completed the podium.


Argentina's Boca Juniors was crowned as the Best CONMEBOL Club of the First Decade (2001-2010) before Brazilian Sao Paulo and his local rival River Plate.
