What happened? 📝

Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain returned to action and sent out a ruthless warning to anyone doubting their hunger to add this trophy to the cabinet too.

With scored four unanswered goals by half-time alone, PSG coasted to a 4-0 victory over Lionel Messi's Inter Miami.

Afterwards, Harry Kane was at the double as Bayern Munich defeated Flamengo 4-2 and booked their place in the quarter-final line-up.

Player of the Day 🔥

João Neves often does not receive the praise he deserves in a PSG side surrounded by talents who tend to hog the headlines.

But the Portuguese scored twice in their 4-0 victory to take Player of the Match honours and deservedly so.

It has taken his goal contributions count for his maiden season in the French capital to 16 - not bad for someone who is still just 20 with the best yet to come.

What this means 🤔

PSG and Bayern Munich continue flying the flag for European sides with their respective victories.

Inter Miami and Flamengo will make returns to domestic action in July as a result of their respective eliminations.

Elsewhere, Botafogo have fired head coach Renato Paiva after their Club World Cup exit at the hands of fellow Brazilian side Palmeiras.

What they said 🗣️

"In the first 20 minutes, the game's intensity was ferocious. You are thinking 'in this heat, will this carry on?' We grew into the game and are really happy to be in the next round." Vincent Kompany, Bayern Munich

"We're very happy but now the most important thing is to think about resting. We need to prepare well for the next game but now we have time to do so. It will be difficult for us, as every game at this stage of a competition is." Luis Enrique, PSG

"Lionel Messi didn't lose today. Inter Miami did. Have you seen the team? Messi is playing with statues, not team-mates! If he was in a real team, any of the big teams, you would see the real lion." Zlatan Ibrahimović

What's next? 👀

July 5 is the quarter-final date to watch out for both of Sunday's victors next.

It is then in Atlanta where PSG and Bayern Munich meet in a mouthwatering match-up.
