Although the tournament itself is not for the first time, a new format was played with 32 clubs from around the world. The power rates were very different, starting with the Champions League winners in Paris “Saint-Germain” or PSG, ending with the semi-professional team Auckland “City” from New Zealand. However, despite this, all teams, including New Zealanders, who are not football on their daily basis. They fought a 1: 1 draw in the last match with one of the strongest Argentine teams – “Boca Juniors”.
Brazilian fight in the semi -finals
Perhaps the biggest surprises were Porto and Madrid’s “Atletico” not to be out of their sub -groups. The legs in front of them were Miami’s “Inter” unit with Argentine superstar Lionel Messi at the forefront and already mentioned Brazilian Botafogo team from Rio de Janeiro, who will enter the exclusion games with a very principled duel against Saoiras Palmeiras.
Rio footballers played Seattle’s “Sunders” team from the United States in the first match with a 2: 1 loss in all three games, but in the second surprised PSG, winning 1: 0, while in the decisive match with the same result defeated Atletico.
At the end of the group tournament, all three leaders had the same number of points – six each, but the Madrids dug themselves, in the opening game of 80,000 spectators with a disruptive 0: 4 conceding to PSG.
As a result, Atletico had to put up with the third place in the group and premature to go home while watching the match between the duels.
The Palmeira team in Sub-Group A did not suffer any loss twice (with Porto-0: 0 and Miami “Inter” 2: 2), as well as winning one victory by 2: 0 45-time Egyptian champions Al-Alyhy from Cairo. With five points and a better score/lost goal than Inter was enough to rank first.
Currently, the Brazilian local Championship “Palmeiras” is ranked fourth with 22 points in 11 games, while Botafogo is in eighth place with 18 points in the match. San Paulo’s team is considered to be the favorites of this duel, but it is interesting that the last time the Palmeira’s success over these competitors was relatively distant as far as November 2, 2023, when the victory with a 4: 3 victory was celebrated. In the next three matches, Botafogo celebrated victories, but on March 30, the teams closed the draw.
This game is scheduled for Saturday, June 28, at 19.00.
Together, four Brazilian teams play in the World Club Cup, and the remaining two – Rio -based Flamengo and Fluminese – were able to get out of their sub -groups. Flamengo left London’s Chelsea, Esperance from Tunisia and Los Angeles Galaxy in Sub -Group D, while Fluminese ranked second behind Dortmund Borussia with an identical balance as “Palmeira” in Group F.
The tournament “Zar” does not provide any of the teams a light walk, as Flamengo (Sunday at 11 pm) will meet with German supergrand Munich “Bayern”, but “Fluminese” (Monday at 22:00) will play with this season’s Champions League finalist Milan “Inter”.
European
Football fans are also welcomed by two intriguing European derbyes – Chelsea will play against Lisbon Benfica, while the five -time World Club Cup champions Madrid’s Real will meet Turin’s Juventus. The Portuguese won the C Group C, winning the first place in the last game Bayern, and for the time being the tournament is run without a loss. Chelsea’s slightly unexpected loss to Flamengo made a 1: 3 loss in the final game with Esperance, but the 3-0 victory allowed them to score convincingly in the next round.
The last battle between the two teams was a long time ago – in May 2013, when the forces were measured in the European League final. At that time, the English were 2: 1, and they are also considered the favorites of this match. This duel will take place on Saturday at. 23.00 Latvian time.
Juventus started this tournament very convincingly-in sub-group G first with a 5-0 lead by the United Arab Emirates team “Al-Aain”, but three days later, the Moroccan unit “Wydad AC” from Casablanca defeated a 4: 1 win. But in the match against Manchester City, the Italians descended closer to the Earth, losing by 2: 5. By contrast, Real, with every game, seems to just run-1: 1 against Al-Hilal, who has lately, in the football world, from Saudi Arabia, 3: 1 over Mexican Pachuha and 3: 0 over Salzburg’s Red Bull.
For the Royal Club of Madrid, this has been a failed season as the thick trophy shelf is left without significant additions, which is a very rare record in their history books,
Except for the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Stapthinental Cup. This means that they will not have to look far for motivation and, on the basis of previous games, are certainly considered favorites in the match scheduled for Tuesday, July 1, at. 22.00 Latvian time.
In other games (Sunday at 7 pm), PSG will play with Miami “Inter”, the top scorer in the tournament in Manchester “City” (on Tuesday night at 4 pm) will play against “Al-Hilal”, but will finish the Dortmund’s “Borussia” and Mexican Monterey.
