The football capital city is now in Barcelona, Spain.
Why? It's because they have taken all the trophies in all competitions they had played in year 2009. And the last trophy made it official that Barcelona is the best team in the world.
They won the Club World Cup 2009, after their presupposed hero, brilliant number 10, Lionel Messi, scored in extra-time, during the 2-1 victory against South American champion, Estudiantes. The glory is all theirs now. Spain, Europe and the world have all been conquered. El Barca have truly subdued the earth.
Perhaps now El Tricampeon is not a proper nickname for Barcelona, it should be El Seiscampeon.
As a bonus, Pedro Rodriguez, another Barcelona forward, became the only player in history to score in six different club competitions in a single season, after scoring for Barcelona against Atlante in the Club World Cup (16th December 2009).
