Artemio Franchi Trophy
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Artemio Franchi Trophy was an official competition[1] held twice (1985 and 1993) between the champions of the European Football Championship and the Copa América. It was the national team equivalent to the Intercontinental Cup featuring the top European and South American clubs, and can be considered a precursor of the King Fahd Cup, played in 1992 for the first time and renamed the FIFA Confederations Cup after FIFA took over its organization for the third edition in 1997.
The trophy was named after the late Artemio Franchi, UEFA President from 1972 to 1983, when he died in a road accident.
