NB: for each of the involved countries, the worst team in the group
pahes is to be replaced for 1999 with the national champions in
1998: Independiente (Argentina), Corinthians (Brazil), Universidad
de Chile (Chile), Cerro Porteño (Paraguay) and Peñarol (Uruguay)
are the teams "relegated" by this rule. Since in all cases the
1998 champions were already among the 20 'elect' clubs, no team
was actually replaced (Corinthians in fact replace themselves as
Brazilian champions 1998).
