Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), the current Champions League holders, have advanced to the semifinals of the FIFA Club World Cup after defeating German giants Bayern Munich 2-0 in a quarterfinal match. The highly anticipated game was held at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta and was published on July 5, 2025.
The match featured an eventful first half that concluded without any goals.
Despite the goalless scoreline at halftime, both teams had created scoring opportunities.
A notable moment in the opening 45 minutes included a header by Bayern’s centre-back Dayot Upamecano, which was ultimately disallowed due to being offside.
In the second half, PSG managed to break the deadlock and secure their two goals. Ousmane Dembele was credited with scoring PSG’s second goal, celebrating the achievement with teammate Achraf Hakimi.
A remarkable aspect of PSG’s victory was that they managed to clinch the 2-0 win despite ending the match with only nine players on the pitch.
This decisive win books PSG a spot in the semifinals, where they are set to face either Real Madrid or Borussia Dortmund.
