The 2004 Intercontinental Cup was an association football match that took place on 12 December 2004 between Porto of Portugal, winners of the 2003–04 UEFA Champions League, and Once Caldas of Colombia, winners of the 2004 Copa Libertadores. The match was played at the International Stadium in Yokohama, Japan in front of 45,748 fans and ended 0–0 after extra time, where Porto eventually won 8–7 in the penalty shoot-out. Maniche of Porto, despite being the only Porto player to miss his penalty kick, was named as man of the match.
This was the last Intercontinental Cup final as the competition was subsequently expanded from a single game between European and South American champions into the FIFA Club World Cup, also including North, Central American and Caribbean, Asian, African and Oceanian continental champions.
The match was the 43rd Intercontinental Cup, an annual football competition organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) and the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL).
