The 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup is the 10th edition of the FIFA Confederations Cup, a quadrennial international men's football tournament organized by FIFA, and will be held between 17 June and 2 July 2017,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ethics: Executive Committee unanimously supports recommendation to publish report on 2018/2022 FIFA World Cup™ bidding process )〕 as a prelude to the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The host will be Russia, as announced on 2 December 2010 after the country was awarded the hosting rights of the 2018 World Cup.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/russia2018/news/newsid=1369789/index.html )〕 Since the host country, Russia and the 2014 World Cup Champions, Germany, are both from UEFA, and a third team will qualify from UEFA Euro 2016, this will be the first time that three teams from the same confederation will take part in any Confederations Cup. 2015 AFC Asian Cup winners Australia became the first team to qualify from multiple confederations, having previously represented the OFC in 1997, 2001 and 2005. Brazil, who have won the previous three Confederation Cups (2005, 2009, 2013), failed to qualify following their loss on penalties to Paraguay in the quarterfinals of the 2015 Copa América. This will mark the first time since the tournament's inception that Brazil will not participate (excluding the King Fahd Cup). ==Qualified teams== The eight competing teams will be the hosts, the reigning World Cup champions, and the six holders of the FIFA confederation championships. Starting from this tournament, the two most recent CONCACAF Gold Cup champions will compete in a play-off (called the ''CONCACAF Cup'') to decide the representative team of CONCACAF.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2013, 2015 Gold Cup winners will meet for 2017 Confederations Cup spot )〕 If any team qualifies for multiple berths (e.g., if the World Cup champions also won their continental championship), the next best-placed team from their continental championship qualifies. Past Confederations Cup championships won are in bold. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2017 FIFA Confederations Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
