Tokyo Project
About “Tokyo Project”:
The Projeto Tóquio is a Portuguese language term traditionally used by Brazilian media and clubs' staff and supporters in the context of winning or attempting to win the Copa Libertadores football (soccer) competition and then compete in the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan. Thus, when a club gets eliminated from the competition, it is said by the media that the team has postponed its Tokyo Project. The term Projeto Tóquio was first used in 1986, during São Paulo's 1986 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A campaign, as a way to make the club more popular.
