Shocking moment PSG fan stamps on Botafogo supporter's head in sick stadium brawl during Club World Cup clash
THIS is the shocking moment a mass brawl broke out between PSG and Botafogo fans. The horrific scenes took place as the Champions League winners lost 1-0 to the Brazilian giants at the Club World Cup. 7 7 7 7 7 But before kick-off at the iconic Rose Bowl Stadium in California last night, violence erupted between supporters in the stands. PSG and Botafogo fans threw punches at each other with around 25 people seemingly involved. The ugly scenes saw two Parisians attack a single Botafogo supporter and continue after he dropped to the floor. Other fans stopped the duo before a man in a Botafogo shirt then attacked them. It led to several people falling over and as they were on the deck, a different member of the PSG faithful kicked and stamped on someone's head in a sickening assault. Another was seen punching a man repeatedly while he was down. There was shockingly no stewards or police on the scene to stop the fight. And many other supporters not looking for trouble are seen running away from the melee. It remains unclear what began the brawl or the injuries sustained. PSG supporters were involved in violence after winning the Champions League final last month. The victory led to cars being set on fire and clashes with riot cops back in the French capital, with over 500 arrests and 200 people injured. On the pitch last night, Nottingham Forest target Igor Jesus scored the only goal in a shock win for Botafogo, who now top Group B after two wins. They look set to go through with PSG and Atletico Madrid battling it out for second place. 7 7

Ageless superstar Messi steers Inter Miami, PSG upset
Lionel Messi has scored his first goal of the expanded Club World Cup from an exquisite free kick, lifting Inter Miami to a 2-1 victory over two-time European champions Porto. But the upset of the day belonged to Botafago, who upstaged Paris St Germain 1-0 at the Rose Bowl. Igor Jesus scored late in the first half for the South American champions, who withstood a tense second half while moving atop their group at 2-0-0. PSG hadn't lost in any competition since May 3, but the European champions looked understandably weary at times before a lively crowd of 53,699. Inter Miami, meanwhile, trailed 1-0 at the break but Telasco Segovia levelled matters two minutes into the second half off a cross into the box from Marcelo Weigandt. Then it was time for the 37-year-old Argentinian to add a trademark goal to a resume that already assures he'll go down as one of the game's greatest ever. Samu Omorodion scored from a penalty kick in the opening minutes after a video review for the Portuguese club's first goal of the tournament. Both teams were held to scoreless draws in their opening Group A matches. Messi was taken down just outside the penalty area by Rodrigo Mora during a run from the middle of the field. The crowd at Mercedes-Benz Stadium chanted "Messi!" Messi! Messi!" before his left-footed blast cleared the Porto wall and ripped the net in the top right corner in the 54th minute. Inter Miami return to South Florida on Monday, knowing a victory over Brazilian club Palmeiras at Hard Rock Stadium will lock up their spot in the round of 16. In desperate need of a win, Porto will close out group play against Egypt's Al Ahly at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Earlier, Palmeiras beat Egyptian club Al Ahly 2-0 at the MetLife Stadium, with the game interrupted during the second half because of the threat of lightning in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Brazilians had seen forward Raphael Veiga shown a straight red card by English referee Anthony Taylor in the 37th minute following a high challenge on Al Ahly winger Zizo. However, after being advised to review the incident on the pitchside monitor, Taylor changed his decision to issue only a yellow card. Palmeiras broke the deadlock three minutes into the second half through an own goal when Al Ahly forward Wessam Abou Ali headed a deep free-kick into the top corner of his own net before substitute Flaco Lopez broke clear to double the lead just ahead of the hour. With thunderstorms looming, the players were soon signalled to come off as the match was suspended in the 63rd minute. A notice was displayed on the stadium's big screen, directing all spectators to leave the seated bowl area and take shelter inside "for your safety" because of "severe weather in the area". Palmeiras went on to close out a first win that put them level on four points with Inter Miami ahead of their final group game at the Hard Rock Stadium on June 24. In Pasadena, Jesus's stunning score in the 36th minute was the first goal allowed since May 17 by PSG, who routed Atlético Madrid 4-0 last Sunday. The French powerhouse had outscored their last three opponents by a combined 12-0, winning the French Cup and the Champions League final along the way. Ballon d'Or contender Ousmane Dembélé missed his second straight game for PSG with a quadriceps injury. His teammates still dominated possession in the first half, even though coach Luis Enrique rotated his starting lineup. Everything came undone with the remarkable individual effort by Jesus, the Brazilian striker reportedly headed for Nottingham Forest next season. PSG finished with 16 shot attempts to Botafogo's four, but all four were on target, whereas PSG only got two on net. Jesus controlled Jefferson Savarino's long pass, beat two defenders and thumped a shot past Gianluigi Donnarumma. He leapt over a barrier and up onto the front row of the Rose Bowl stands to celebrate with Botafogo's ecstatic supporters. PSG had little of the sublime connective play that characterised their stellar run over the past month, but Enrique's club is still in a strong position to advance as they head to Seattle on Monday to play Major League Soccer's Sounders. with PA Lionel Messi has scored his first goal of the expanded Club World Cup from an exquisite free kick, lifting Inter Miami to a 2-1 victory over two-time European champions Porto.

PSG stunned by Botafogo defeat at Club World Cup
Brazil's Botafogo withstood waves of attacks from Paris St Germain to stun the European champions 1-0 and throw Group B at the Club World Cup wide open. PSG dominated possession at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena but Botafogo's resolute defence stood tall in the first competitive meeting between the two clubs. The goal came in the 36th minute when Botafogo gained possession in midfield and Jefferson Savarino slid a pass through for Igor Jesus to run in on goal. Jesus outmaneuvered two defenders and his shot deflected off the leg of PSG's Willian Pacho, the ball changing direction and leaving goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma flatfooted and only able to watch as the ball skipped into the net. Jesus celebrated by hopping over the barrier and was mobbed by delirious Botafogo fans. PSG continued to be the aggressors in the second half as Botafogo were content to protect their lead and try to capitalize on the break. PSG, who had scored 19 goals in their last five matches, had the ball in the net in the 79th minute but the goal was chalked off for offside and Botafogo held for the shock win. The Brazilians became the first team to stop PSG scoring since March when Liverpool defeated them 1-0 in the Champions League. The French side had scored in 19 consecutive games until losing on Thursday. Botafogo coach Renato Paiva said his team had beaten PSG at their own game. "Being a great team, playing together, all the guys defending, all the guys attacking, and that's the big secret of this PSG team, that's why they compete and win," he said. "They are a fantastic team. I said this, PSG are a lesson to everybody nowadays in football. And I told my guys, just be a team, enjoy playing together, attack together, defend together, and enjoy. And they did they did it. Fantastic." PSG were once again without Ousmane Dembele, who suffered an injury while playing for France in the UEFA Nations League earlier this month The victory gives the South American champions a huge boost in their hopes of advancing to the knockout rounds after they beat MLS side Seattle Sounders 2-1 in their opener. PSG, who thrashed Atletico Madrid 4-0 in their first match, will look to bounce back against the Sounders on Monday while Botafogo are back at the Rose Bowl again to take on Atletico the same day. Brazil's four teams at the 32-club tournament are unbeaten so far and Paiva said it showed the strength of the game in the South American nation. "I think it's the quality of Brazilian players, the quality of what people are doing in Brazil, especially the coaches," he said.
