For the moment, we cannot say this club World Cup offers an absolute treat in terms of the game. But the competition has the merit of offering suspense and some surprises. Which does not spare Paris Saint-Germain.
With its defeat against Botafogo (1-0), PSG is no longer sure to qualify for the knockout stages. The capital's club will even have to win in the last group match against Seattle Sounders, so as not to have to count on a faux-pas from Atlético. So then?
Daily, the Ranking football account updates the provisional table of the final phase, based on its statistical predictions for the last hen matches. For PSG, the situation has evolved somewhat for a day or two.
PSG-inter Miami, it becomes clearer
According to projections, PSG is still favorite to take first place in its group. This will take this Parisians to win against Seattle while Atlético defeated Botafogo. We will thus have an equality of three, everything would be played out in the difference in particular goals, and 4-0 of PSG-Atlético would weigh heavy in the balance.
PSG would then face the second in group A, which has a good chance of being Inter Miami. This will be the case if the Lionel Messi team draws a draw against Palmeiras, or even in the event of a defeat if Al-Ahly does not beat FC Porto.
No Chelsea-Psg in quarters?
So then? If he finished first, PSG could then cross the road to Flamengo (and not from Chelsea, because the Brazilians are assured of the first place in group D) or the second of group C, which is well started to be Benfica Lisbon.
