PSG completely outperformed Inter Miami. |
There are some games where the score doesn't tell the whole story. The clash between PSG and Inter Miami is one of them.
A match that was only five minutes in the balance - then a blue-black whirlwind swept away all the effort, all the will, all the reputation. PSG don't just play football, they teach their opponents how to accept defeat.
Lionel Messi’s side entered the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup™ Round of 16 match with the desire to prove they were up to the task against the French champions. But they could only hold on to that belief for five minutes. After the first goal, Inter Miami seemed to be just hanging on, waiting for the final whistle.
Messi - the symbol of miracles, the one who has turned all fates upside down - was also powerless this time. No more breakthroughs, no more miracles. Only the absent-minded eyes and running form of the one who used to be number one, now only able to endure the defeat against the strongest team on the planet.
PSG is too strong. |
PSG do not play to win. They play to assert their absolute difference. Luis Enrique has created a team that knows no compromise, has no concept of “relaxing”, even when the match is considered decided.
PSG attacked as if they were still behind, defended as if they were on the brink of elimination. It was that coldness that made the opponent disintegrate from the inside. It was no longer a story about tactics or people - it was the spirit of an absolute champion.
The match against Inter Miami was not a contest - it was more like a perfectly choreographed performance, where PSG was the performer and their opponents were just the background. People called it "a match between men and children" - not to put Inter Miami down, but to emphasize PSG's superiority: in terms of physical strength, in terms of technique, in terms of organization, and especially in terms of fighting mentality.
After a historic treble in French football, PSG are aiming for a new pinnacle: the FIFA Club World Cup. If they win, they will become the first team to write their name into history as club world champions under the new format.
But even without lifting the trophy, PSG are still the name the rest of the world looks up to. Opponents are happy when they are not destroyed, the press is amazed when they "only" win by three goals. The football world seems to be adapting to a new reality - where Luis Enrique's PSG are the absolute standard of perfection.
PSG showed their superiority with a 4-0 victory over Inter Miami. |
The defeat against Botafogo, if it can be called a defeat, was perhaps just a small low note in the majestic symphony. A necessary accident so that PSG would not forget that they are still human. But when they returned, they were more ruthless, more cold, as if to emphasize that today's football world has only one true king.
PSG don't need any trophies to prove their class. They have already crossed the threshold of title validation. PSG are playing to set the standard, to rewrite the concept of dominance.
And if anyone still doubts, then the match with Messi - not an old Messi but Messi himself, the one who once defined football - is the answer that could not be clearer.
