The Copa Euro-América (English: Euro-America Cup), was a friendly tournament organized by CBF and Bundesliga. Due the fact that the German league at the time had no matches scheduled in January, Interseason tournaments were organized in the middle of the Brazilian summer.[1] In all, three editions of the competition were held: 1991, 1996 and 1999.
