PSG 4–0 Real Madrid: Dominant Parisians Humiliate Los Blancos to Reach Club World Cup Final

Paris Saint-Germain delivered a dominant performance on Wednesday night, defeating Real Madrid 4–0 in the semi-finals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup at the Parc des Princes. The French champions stunned the Spanish giants with three goals inside the opening 25 minutes, courtesy of a brace from Fabián Ruiz and a well-taken strike by Ousmane Dembélé. Substitute Gonçalo Ramos added a fourth in the 88th minute, sealing a commanding victory that sends PSG into the final against Chelsea.

PSG’s electric start left Madrid shell-shocked. Ruiz opened the scoring in the 6th minute after exploiting a defensive lapse, and Dembélé followed up with a composed finish just three minutes later. Ruiz struck again in the 24th minute, completing his brace with a low shot from outside the box. Madrid’s defense struggled to cope with PSG’s intensity, while their midfield failed to establish any rhythm.

Real Madrid showed slight improvement in the second half but were unable to break through PSG’s well-organised setup. Any hope of a late comeback was extinguished when Gonçalo Ramos reacted quickest to a loose ball in the penalty area and scored the fourth goal. The result marked one of Madrid’s heaviest defeats in international competition in recent years.

Speaking after the match, PSG manager Luis Enrique praised his players for their discipline, urgency, and precision. “This is the kind of football we want to play, fast, aggressive, and with purpose,” he said. In contrast, Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti admitted his team had been thoroughly outclassed, adding, “We were outplayed in every department. PSG were exceptional tonight.”

The result propels PSG into the Club World Cup final, where they will face Premier League side Chelsea on Sunday. For Real Madrid, the defeat signals more than just a missed final—it highlights serious tactical and structural questions that will need urgent answers ahead of the new season. They now turn their focus to the third-place playoff as PSG chase their first global title.
