Paris Saint-Germain delivered a commanding performance to defeat Real Madrid 4-0 in the FIFA Club World Cup second semifinal match at MetLife Stadium in New York on Wednesday.
The European champions were ruthless, scoring four unanswered goals to secure their spot in the final against Chelsea.
Fabian Ruiz scored twice, in the 6th and 24th minutes, sandwiching Ousmane Dembele’s goal in the ninth minute.
Goncalo Ramos added a late fourth goal, wrapping up the scoring with a precise finish from a Bradley Barcola layoff.
PSG’s dominant display was marked by their precision, pace, and clinical finishing.
