PSG is set to confront either Real Madrid or Borussia Dortmund after their decisive 2-0 win over Bayern Munich in the semifinals of the FIFA Club World Cup. The French club secured victory through goals from Dejan Lovren and Ousmane Dembélé, even though both teams ended the match with nine players following red cards for Willian Pacho and Lucas Hernandez. Bayern’s winger, Jamal Musiala, suffered a serious injury after a collision with PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma just before halftime.

Despite a tumultuous match, PSG is moving forward without Pacho and Hernandez for the semis, but still has strong prospects for success in the tournament. If they are challenged, who could prove to be their toughest opponent? Here’s a ranking of the teams most likely to upset the Champions League winners as they seek global dominance.

4. Borussia Dortmund (BVB)

The German side is gearing up for a quarterfinal showdown with Real Madrid, and if they advance, they could face PSG in the semifinals. Coached by Nico Kovač, Dortmund has been performing well, but their upcoming match against Real Madrid will be crucial. While they’ve made strides in the tournament, stopping PSG may be a tall order, although Jude Bellingham’s potential return could bolster their chances if they progress.

3. Fluminense

The Brazilian team has been a surprise success in the tournament, especially following their wins against both Inter and Al Hilal to reach the knockout stage. Fluminense will face Chelsea in the semifinals, with the possibility of a match against PSG in the final. Under the guidance of coach Luis Enrique, the squad has demonstrated a strong defensive quality, having conceded only one goal in their last three matches, setting them up for a possible challenge against PSG.

2. Chelsea

The English club managed to secure their semifinal spot in a thrilling 2-1 victory over Palmeiras, featuring a critical own goal. Chelsea dominated the match, with Cole Palmer netting his first tournament goal shortly after kickoff. Under coach Enzo Maresca, they are expected to face Fluminense, but beating PSG, with their wealth of talent, will pose a significant challenge due to potential cohesion issues.

1. Real Madrid

The Spanish giants represent the biggest threat to PSG in the tournament. Should they win against Borussia Dortmund, they will likely meet PSG in the semifinals, with both teams viewed as favorites for the summer tournament. French star Kylian Mbappé made his comeback during the FIFA Club World Cup after battling gastroenteritis, as this summer competition serves as the last chance for coach Xavi Alonso’s team to claim a trophy before the start of the new season.

Fan Take: This matchup is pivotal for soccer fans as it highlights the intense competition and drama that defines top-tier football. The outcomes not only affect the clubs involved but also influence the global prestige of the sport, setting the stage for future rivalries and championships.
