Paris Saint-Germain have booked their place in the semi-finals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, overcoming Bayern Munich 2–0 in a fiery quarter-final clash despite being reduced to nine men.
The result makes PSG the third team to secure a semi-final spot, joining Chelsea and Fluminense, while the final slot will be decided between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.
⚽ Match Highlights: PSG 2–0 Bayern Munich
Desire Doué broke the deadlock with a sensational left-footed rocket from outside the box, catching Manuel Neuer off guard.
PSG were forced to play much of the second half with nine men after Willian Pacho and Lucas Hernandez both received straight red cards.
Still, the French giants stood tall and sealed the win with a late goal from Ousmane Dembélé, whose pace and composure punished Bayern on the counter.

💬 Opinion: PSG Prove They’re More Than Flash – They’re Fighters
This wasn't a victory built on flair alone — it was a statement of resilience, maturity, and tactical grit. PSG, often criticized for crumbling under pressure in big games, showed Champions League-winning character by holding off one of Europe’s most experienced sides while down two players.
Desire Doué is emerging as a breakout star, and Dembélé continues to rebuild his elite reputation on the biggest stages. With Kylian Mbappé gone, a new PSG identity is forming — and it’s powerful.
Bayern, on the other hand, looked flat and uninspired, and the injury to Jamal Musiala in this same match casts a long shadow on their immediate future.
