PSG pulverise miserable Madrid 4-0, face Chelsea in CWC final
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.
Real Madrid, without Trent Alexander-Arnold due to injury, struggled to cope with PSG’s intensity.
The match was effectively settled within the first 24 minutes, with PSG’s superior fitness and organisation proving too much for the Spanish giants.
The win sets up a highly anticipated final between PSG and Chelsea, with both teams looking to claim the coveted Club World Cup trophy.
No fewer than 77,542 fans watched the game at the iconic MetLife Stadium in New York.
