PSG Dominates Real Madrid in Club World Cup Semifinal; Challenges Ahead for Madrid
Posted on July 10, 2025
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) delivered a stunning performance in the Club World Cup semifinal, overpowering Real Madrid with a resounding 4-0 victory. Under the management of Luis Enrique, PSG has showcased their potential to build a dynasty, following an impressive Champions League final victory and continuing their dominance in this tournament. The win against Madrid further solidifies their status as a formidable force in European football.
PSG's explosive start saw them score three goals in the first 24 minutes, with Fabian Ruiz netting two and Ousmane Dembele adding another. Goncalo Ramos capped off the scoring just before the final whistle, marking a dominant display where PSG's pace and pressing overwhelmed their opponents. With this victory, PSG is set to face Chelsea in the final, and pundits are already praising the team's relentless style and depth.
Despite the defeat, Real Madrid is navigating a transitional phase under new coach Xabi Alonso. The team has struggled with consistency and defensive organization, particularly against high-pressing opponents like PSG. Alonso acknowledged the need for growth and adaptation, as he experiments with formations and integrates new players. The challenges ahead for Madrid are significant, especially with the La Liga season approaching and a need to solidify their strategy.
Overall, PSG's performance has not only highlighted their attacking prowess but also raised questions about Real Madrid's current capabilities and future direction. As the tournament progresses, all eyes will be on whether PSG can maintain their momentum and if Madrid can regroup and improve before the start of the new season.
