The highly anticipated 2025 FIFA Club World Cup semi-final is set to electrify MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Thursday, July 10th, as European giants Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain lock horns in a clash of titans.
This encounter marks a significant moment, as it's the first time these two UEFA powerhouses have met since 2022, and it carries the added drama of Kylian Mbappe facing his former club. While Mbappe, now at Real Madrid, has been used sparingly in the tournament so far, scoring a crucial goal off the bench against Borussia Dortmund, his presence adds an undeniable layer of intrigue.
Real Madrid, under new boss Xabi Alonso, are aiming for a record-extending sixth Club World Cup title after enduring a trophyless 2024-25 season. They secured their semi-final spot with narrow victories over Juventus and Borussia Dortmund in the knockout rounds. Young sensation Gonzalo Garcia has been a standout for Los Blancos, netting four goals in the tournament, while Fran Garcia and a sensational overhead kick from Mbappe sealed their 3-2 win against Dortmund.
Meanwhile, Luis Enrique's PSG side enters this match on a high, having clinched a historic treble in the 2024-25 season: the French Ligue 1 title, Coupe de France, and a maiden Champions League title. They demonstrated their dominance in the Club World Cup by dispatching Inter Miami with a commanding 4-0 victory, followed by a gritty 2-0 win against Bayern Munich despite being reduced to nine men. Ousmane Dembele, who opened his Club World Cup account against Bayern, will be a key figure for the Parisians.
Both teams are considered title favourites, and with the business end of the tournament now underway at MetLife Stadium, high-quality football is guaranteed.
