Corinthians

If it is the right one it is called "Brothers in Football"

Fulfilling a tour that their club had to tragically abandon 100 years before on the eve of the Great War, a team of South London amateurs (the Corinthian-Casuals) set out on a 6,000km pilgrimage to the other side of the world to play against the FIFA World Club Champions (SC Corinthians Paulista) in front of millions in São Paulo, Brazil.

An emotional story - and capturing every boy’s dream - this film also powerfully commemorates the original Corinthian FC, the club credited with originally popularising the Beautiful Game around the world before dying, fighting for its freedom.
 
Southend United played the Corinthians twice back in the day in the FA Cup

FA Cup 1st Round 17th November 1937 Corinthians 0-2 Southend United Scorers Dickinson, Martin.

FA Cup 1st Round 26th November 1938 Southend United 3-0 Corinthians Scorers Smirk (3) Att. 10,068.

That was the last time Corinthians played in the FA Cup, on the 1st May 1939 Corinthian Football Club amalgamated with The Casuals to form Corinthian-Casuals FC.
