FIFA Club World Championship

As winners of the 1999–2000 UEFA Champions League, Real Madrid was one of the 12 teams that were invited to the 2001 FIFA Club World Championship, which would be hosted in Spain from 28 July to 12 August 2001. However, the tournament was cancelled, primarily due to the collapse of ISL, which was marketing partner of FIFA at the time.
Since the fixture was already released prior to the tournament cancellation, it is known that Real Madrid would have played all of its matches on home soil, regardless of how the team would have qualified to the final stage.
