Real Madrid Get Bad News From World Cup Winner Ahead of PSG Match | OneFootball

PSG advanced to the semifinals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup after a dramatic win over Bayern Munich on Saturday in Atlanta. The first half was tight and ended scoreless, but things heated up late in the second.

Désiré Doué broke the deadlock in the 78th minute to give PSG a vital lead. What followed was chaos, as PSG dropped to nine players after two red cards. Still, they stood strong and even found a second goal to seal the win.

Ousmane Dembélé scored that crucial second goal with his very first touch, finishing off a brilliant run by Achraf Hakimi. The right-back slalomed through Bayern’s defense before delivering a perfect cutback for Dembélé.

Later, Real Madrid narrowly defeated Borussia Dortmund 3-2 in a tough battle. The Spanish side won but faced some tense moments along the way.
