Barcelona are World Champions

Barcelona claimed the World Club Cup with a 4-0 win over Brazilian club Santos.

Leo Messi scored twice and Cesc Fabregas and Xavi shared the others in the four goal rout.

Barca had won the trophy in 2009 and regained it after lending it to Inter Milan for a year.

In other news, it was announced the next year’s competition will be held in Morocco. FIFA has confirmed that the north African country will hots in both 2013 and 2014.

South Africa, Iran and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) had been bidding for the rights but all withdrew.
