PSG
PSG cruised into the quarter-finals, demolishing Inter Miami with a 4-0 thrashing that was sealed by half-time. They were relentless in the first half, racking up 10 shots (6 on target). Neves netted a brace, Hakimi added one, and there was an own goal to round things off.
The second half saw a drop in intensity, and Luis Enrique’s subs didn’t quite spark the fire.
They’ve easily made it to this stage and are set on going all the way. With a good gap since their last match, expect PSG to roll out their strongest lineup.
They’ve scored 4 goals in two of their four games, and their only group stage loss against Botafogo was a mere blip. Interestingly, most of their goals have come from midfielders, with forwards like Doue and Dembele yet to find the net in this tournament.
Bayern
Bayern had a bit of a tussle against Flamengo but managed a 4-2 win to secure their quarter-final spot. They established a solid 3-1 lead at half-time but let in a penalty early in the second half, narrowing the gap. Harry Kane’s second goal put the game beyond reach in the 73rd minute.
They’ve reached this point without breaking a sweat, boasting the tournament’s best attack with 16 goals. Three of their four matches have seen over 2.5 goals, but they’ve only managed one clean sheet. Their matches against Botafogo and semi-pro Auckland were goal-fests, with the latter seeing them rack up 10 goals!
Kane and Michael Olise have been the stars, each scoring three goals. Manager Vincent Kompany is likely to stick with his regular starters, and Kane, fresh off his first trophy win, is brimming with confidence, ready to take on a talented PSG side.
