PSG which "trampled" Atletico, also wants the top of the world!

Manos Staramopoulos • 16 de junio de 2025

PSG is the big favorite in this 2025 Club World Cup and confirmed it by destroying a rival that never existed.

PSG destroyed Atlético Madrid 4-0 with an exhibition by Vitinha, MVP of the game in Los Ángeles.

The European Champion, Paris Saint-Germain turned the game against Atletico Madrid, one of the strongest teams in La Liga, into a performance for a... role, in its premiere at the Club World Cup, which is being held in the stadiums of the United States, and more specifically at the "Rose Bowl Stadium" in Los Angeles, crushing the Spanish team 4-0, as part of the 2nd group.

Luis Enrique's players, having... momentum from the UEFA Champions League final, (they scattered Inter with 5-0), showed it in another game. Underlining their enormous potential and with surprising efficiency, they ideally started their obligations in the top competition.


Georgian winger Kvaratskhelia found himself in the area with his back in the 19th minute, but he pushed the ball wide and Spanish international left-footed midfielder Fabian Ruiz scored with a powerful shot to make it 1-0.


The goal did not change anything essentially, with Paris having the initiative, but without threatening much. In the first minute of added time (45+1'), however, Luis Enrique's team made it 2-0. The Portuguese international midfielder Vitinha was active, finding himself with the ball in the small area and with a perfect placement, he made it 2-0, with which both teams went to the locker room.


The French entered the second half strongly, with Kvaratskhelia hitting the post in the 49th minute. The pace then dropped and the game had little to show.


In the 78th minute, French international stopper Clement Lenglet  received a second yellow card and nine minutes later Paris scored 3-0. The 19-year-old striker Mayulu  found himself in an advantageous position and beat Slovenian goalkeeper Oblak, giving his team the dimensions of a triumph. The… icing on the cake was Lee Kang-in with a well-aimed penalty in the 90+6 minute, making the final score 4-0.

Vitinha is the man of the match

 

The small Portuguese international midfielder, just like in the Champions League final in Munich, on the evening of May 31st, against Inter, now also masterfully led his team. He knew when to pass and when to keep the ball. Excellent and always on the rise in his career. Now Paris aims to continue at the same pace and eventually add another title to its trophy cabinet.
