Tempers are cooling for now. A very strange thing is that the Italian Australis soccer teams are the most successful in the Intercontinental Club Championship, thanks to the legendary soccer player Marcus Stefanus Constantinus, the Pelé of this world.
I've read some articles showing how absurd this guy was at playing football. He was not only a three-time champion, just like Pelé in my old timeline, but he went even further. He became a 13-time World Champion, and his last match with Santos was against Bayern Munich, led by none other than Franz Beckenbauer, who in 1974 won the World Cup with West Germany against Johan Cruyff's Netherlands.
He beat the team that was the base of the West German national team, by the resounding score of 5 x 2 and made Santos world champion thirteen times, only in 1966 and 1970 that the team gave up participating in the New World Cup, the Libertadores of this world, with that he became the most successful player in history, being called not the "King of Football" but rather "The God of Football", his biggest win in an official game was in the imperial championship between Santos x Luciusville by the score of 15 to 0, in 1973, he scored a quadruple hat-trick in a team that at the time was considered "the team that would stop Santos", in addition to a hat-trick from a player who would have to be coach of the 2002 champion team, Ludovicus Felipus Scollari.
The Imperial Football Federation, created in 1879, by the tropical-Roman nobleman, Valerius Constantius Galba, An interesting fact is that on November 15, 1889, while a game was taking place between AS Lupus and Siracusa FC, the first bicycle kick goal in the history of Italia Australis football occurred, something which in my old timeline was the deposition of Emperor Dom Pedro II and the beginning of the Republic in Brazil, as this didn't even come close to that reality since the Romans were "the first colonizers before Leif Erikson and Christopher Columbus", the majority of the population has Roman blood and Emperor Titus I was not exactly an elderly gentleman like Dom Pedro II and did not leave a handful of military coup plotters overthrow your government.
The champions of the Imperial Cup from 1879 to 1899 were the clubs that already existed in the period when the 19th century Crisis was already in its final moments, the greatest champion of that period was SA Augustopolis, with 10 titles, in second place was Lupus from Nova Istria with 4 titles, in third place was Paulistano with 2 titles, Atlas from Nova Cyrenaica with 1 title, Caesar FC from Nova Constantinopla with 1 title, Nova Ravenna from the province with the same name has 1 title and Flanders FC with 1 title, thus closing the 19th century with valid titles from the Imperial Football Federation.
From 1900 to 1946, with some 19th century teams disappearing to the newer teams, the Big 14 , Santos, Corinthians, Palestra Italia, Crux Melitensis,National of Nova Siracusa, Internacional, Noricum Master, Torino of Augustopolis, Botafogo, Cornelius FC, Leo Magnus, Atlas of Cesaraugusta, Lupus crinatus, and Centurion of Nova Paulistania, became the biggest winners of the Imperial Cup from 1926 onwards.
The last title of the champion teams of the 19th century was that of Atlas of Nova Cyrenaica, in 1925, in his last decent campaign, then he was relegated to the second division, third division and finally was humiliated by Lupus crinatus by 15 x 0 in the Nova Cyrenaica championship in 1931, As a result, the Atlas of Nova Cyrenaica went bankrupt and its stadium was converted into an Olympic gymnasium field.
The champions of the Imperial Cup from 1900 to 1999 is pure absurdity, despite having the 14 Bigs, there were periods when the small ones challenged colossuses, not for nothing a few weeks before the turn of the millennium, Ludus Sports, a traditional sports magazine, noticed this.
The 20th century in the Imperial Cup: from the fall of the 19th century Titans to the rise of the Big 14 football and the charismatic challengers. Matter of Claudius Honorius Marcus.
Who at the beginning of the 20th century would have thought that AS Augustopolis or Lupus from Nova Istria would currently be teams playing in the third division of the championship of their respective provinces and playing in the eighth division?
Well, my dear reader, a team that was the first to win the Imperial Cup 10 times in the 19th century and then won 7 more titles between 1911 and 1918, is now a mere team of the past and sunk in debt, the same happened with the traditional Lupus from Nova Istria, its last match in the first division was in 1952 and since then it has been about 47 years since Lupus has played in the first division of Imperial Cup, something totally unthinkable for those who were the pioneers of football in Latin America, today only these two teams that were champions in the 19th century still play professionally, Paulistano, the first champion of Nova Paulistania closed its doors in 1930 and the remaining ones created another, the Centuriom of Nova Paulistania, which six years ago beat Johan Cruyff's Barcelona and became the first two-time world champion team from the capital of Nova Paulistania.
In a few days, Palestra Italia will face Sir Ferguson's Manchester United in the Intercontinental Cup, the biggest winner of the Imperial Cup will face Ferguson's way of playing, I hope that have a great match, because in the capital and in Nova Alexandria there are world champions and they will not show solidarity with the Palestra Italia fans, after all that is the only thing missing for Palestra Italia, the long-awaited title of world champion.
Since I mentioned Nova Alexandria, I'm talking about the biggest winner of the Intercontinental Cup, Santos of Nova Alexandria, the team whose idol is Marcus Stefanus Constantinus, three-time world champion with the Italia Australis team, 15 times champion of the Nova Paulistania championship, 9 times champion of the Imperial Cup, 13 times champion of the New World Cup and 13 times champion in the intercontinental club competition, an absurdity even today, no current player would be as decisive as he was when he played, not for nothing do Franz Beckenbauer and Johan Cruyff say that if he played in the 1974 World Cup, Italia Australis would become the five-time world champion there, not in 1994, Santos is already qualified for the 2000 New World Cup, finished in 3rd place in the Imperial Cup with 75 points, at the beginning had a turbulent campaign bordering on relegation but managed to recover and ended up with a place in the New World Cup.
However, there are challengers from the Big 14, these are Luciusville, Machima Fux, Nova Trento and XII of September from Nova Istria and the heroic Sancta Crux from Nova Olissipo, they are all playing in the first division of the imperial cup, the greatest achievement of these five challengers was the final of the New World cup between Colo-Colo of Chile and Sancta Crux of Italia Australis which ended with a score of 3 x 0 for the tricolor from Nova Olissipo and finally beat Red Star from Belgrade by a score of 2 x 1 and became the first world champion from the northeastern region of Italia Australis, a despair for Sport and Nauticum, their rivals in the province.
Well, it seems that it is us and Argentine football that carries South America on its back, I hope that Palestra Italia does not embarrass itself in Manchester, because if it does embarrass itself, the world champions from here and from Argentina they will mock him until the final days of this century and the 21st century.

I had arrived from the Imperial School of Castália some time ago, the sun was already setting and when I saw that there would be a classic between Santos x Palestra Italia at the Coliseum of Julius Libius, in Nova Alexandria.
It was 6:30 pm, I had already taken a shower and on TNT Sports from Italia Australis the football match between Palestra Italia and Santos would be shown.
The former Vila Belmiro became the Coliseum of Julius Libius, in honor of Santos' most successful coach who was champion of the Imperial Cup 9 times, during the years 2009 to 2014, Santos played in Vox Populi Stadium of AS Augustopolis, during that time he managed to win a New World Cup, 2 Nova Paulistania championships, 1 Valerius Constantius Galba cup.
The person responsible for the Coliseum of Julius Libius was Senator Andreas Paolo Giustiniani, one of the richest senators in Italia Australis, his fortune is close to 240 billion aureum which, if converted into euros, comes to approximately 480 billion euros, which makes it even more absurd is that its investments are in civil construction on the African continent and a desalination company in Caribbean and Central America, considered by the American magazine Forbes "The Senator who, if he were American, would control the United States, whether the president is Democratic or Republican", something that left many American congressmen alarmed by such a threat is in South America.
The Coliseum Julius Libius has a capacity for more than 75 thousand people, a mix of synthetic and natural grass, a 360 screen and has a statue of each football player who scored at Santos, the most important is undoubtedly Marcus Stefanus Constantinus, with a golden statue and a laurel wreath on his head with the title "The God of Football" and at the entrance there is a 9 meter obsidian statue of Julius Libius with the following title "To the legendary and only technician who fought a war and stopped a war".
The commentators said before the game that Palestra Italia had a chance to seek a place in the New World Cup, to do so they just had to wait for Internacional to stumble against Sport in Nova Olissipo and hope that Atlas de Cesaraugusta draws with Nacional de Nova Siracusa in Montevideo to achieve 4th place in the Copa Imperial, but loses to Santos by a score of 1 x 0 or 2 x 0 still gets a spot in the New World Cup, unless Santos scores 4 goals or more to bury Palestra Italia's chance of playing in the New World Cup again.
Before the football match started there were two reporters in the middle of the Santos and Palestra Italia fans, one of them put a Santos and Palestra Italia fan, each of them said what the football match would be like.
"Here at the Julius Libius Coliseum we're going to crush Tottenham from Italia Australis, you can mark it there and it'll be 5 x 0 in the pigskin" said one of the Santos fans.
"We are the team that has the most Cup Imperial titles, we are going to crush this team that lives in the past and scored thrashings against teams of bricklayers and workers, the score will be 3 x 0 and it will be a hat trick by Francesco Mazzilli and will have assistance from Lucius Claudius, he can score there" said a Palestra Italia fan.
After a few minutes the match started and honestly, I knew from the history books that Brazil, together with Argentina, revealed stars to world football, such as Pelé, Maradona, Zico,Romário, Ronaldo Fenômeno, Ronaldinho Gaucho, Neymar Jr, Messi and many others, but here football is one of the most democratic games, as a team of Polish immigrants like XII of September faces the colossus of Corinthians at Musketeer Paulus Magnus Stadium and simply wins by a score of 2 x 1 and becomes one of the most memorable games of this season, as there is a play-off to see who remains in the first division, the news that a team of Polish immigrants beat the last South American team to be world champion reached Warsaw and next year, the matches of the XII of September will be broadcast in Poland.
The match was in the 35th minute of the second half, the match was 3 x 3, when a foul was called for Santos and the one who took the foul was the veteran Paulus Cicero, Champions League champion for Milan and would now probably score his 40th goal in the Imperial Cup, which makes him one of the 10 best strikers in the Imperial Cup this century.
"There goes Paulus Cicero, he adjusts the ball and kicks it and I keep an eye on the play!!!! It's from Santos!!!!!" shouts the narrator.
The Julius Libius Coliseum enters into celebration as its biggest rival in the Imperial Cup had just lost fourth place in the fixed spot for the New World Cup and would now have to go to the Conquerors' Cup, the Copa Sudamericana which has the clash with the Europa League champion in December, the same as the New World champion and the Champions League champion, but unlike the Intercontinental Club Championship, the final is in Augustopolis at the Stadium Colossus Imperial , the Maracanã of this world.
The match continued until the 52nd minute and the referee blew the whistle marking the end of the match and the scoreboard showed National of Nova Siracusa in first place with 96 points, in second place Santos with 93 points, in third place was Centuriom of Nova Paulistania with 82 points and in fourth Cornelius FC with 75 points and in fifth Palestra Italia with 75 points but with an inferior goal difference and therefore outside and that's why the narrator said:
"My dear fan, as I always say, you can close the coffin lid and kiss the widow, there is nothing else for Palestra Italia to do, the international match will be in Argentina against Banfield" said the narrator.
I will miss this, the next few years will be decisive for the defense of humanity, a threat a thousand times worse than the Mongols lurks in the future, I will do my best.
