Night highlights: Seattle-Atletico and PSG knocked out 🎥

During the night, two matches valid for Group B of the Club World Cup took place: first on the field were Seattle and Atletico Madrid, followed by PSG and Botafogo.
Here's how the standings now look in their respective groups.
💥 Barrios scores twice, Atletico bounce back!
After the heavy defeat in their opener against PSG, Atlético Madrid lift their heads. In Seattle, the Colchoneros beat the Sounders 3-1, a team that appeared clearly inferior. With this victory, Simeone's team stays in the running for the round of 16 and will play everything against Botafogo.
The match immediately showed a clear technical and tactical gap. Atlético dominated thanks to an inspired Barrios and a Seattle side lacking reference points, especially in defense. Musovski was neutralized, while the Spaniards made good use of the wings and controlled the pace with authority.

In the second half, Witsel scored to make it 2-0 before Rusnak's temporary 1-2, but Barrios quickly restored the gap. Seattle tried to react, but without creating real danger. Now the Spaniards prepare for the direct clash with Botafogo, while the Sounders face the formidable PSG.
😱 PSG KO! Botafogo through to the round of 16
In the match between the European and South American champions, the upset comes from Botafogo. Surprisingly, the Brazilians beat PSG 1-0 thanks to a goal by Igor Jesus in the 36th minute. A victory without spectacle but built on organization, ruthlessness, and defensive spirit.
Luis Enrique changed several players after the big win over Atletico, but the rotation didn't pay off. PSG kept possession, but struggled to be truly dangerous, with Kvaratskhelia isolated and Ramos absent. Botafogo, organized and aggressive, limited the opponent's playmakers and struck on the counterattack.

In the second half, the Spanish coach tried to fix things by bringing on the starters, but the play remained confused. The Brazilians held firm and managed their lead until the end. Now PSG will have to beat Seattle to avoid a sensational elimination in the group stage.
📊 GROUP B STANDINGS
1. Botafogo 6 points
2. PSG 3 points
3. Atletico 3 points
4. Seattle 0 points
PSG goes through if they win against Seattle and Botafogo wins or draws against Atlético; Atlético wins by a maximum of 2 goals difference. PSG would only be eliminated if Atlético wins by 3+ goals and PSG wins by a small margin or draws.

Inter Milan & Italy Star Loses Temper With PSG Fans: 'Don't Take The P*ss With Me' Inter Milan defender Francesco Acerbi lost his temper with a group of PSG fans, taking a threatening tone during an autograph session. An Instagram video captures the moment that the 37-year-old burst out 'don't take the p*ss with me' before telling a fan he'd 'punch' them. Advertisement Inter Milan are currently in the United States for the Club World Cup. As part of their visit, the Nerazzurri are also getting the chance to meet with fans stateside. This is a rare opportunity for many fans to greet the players. Inter Defender Francesco Acerbi Threatens PSG Fans: 'Don't Take The P*ss, I'll Punch You!' PASADENA, CALIFORNIA – JUNE 17: Francesco Acerbi #15 of FC Internazionale Milano warms up prior to the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 group E match between CF Monterrey and FC Internazionale Milano at Rose Bowl Stadium on June 17, 2025 in Pasadena, California. (Photo by) At one autograph session, Inter defender Francesco Acerbi encountered fans of Paris Saint-Germain. PSG are the team that battered Inter 5-0 in the Champions League final last month. And evidently, Acerbi did not appreciate the reminder – and some taunts from one fan in particular. A PSG fan reminded the 37-year-old of his losing battle with star winger Bradley Barcola. 'Don't take the p*ss with me!' he replied. 'France are top, sure. But Barcola-Acerbi, no.'
