In Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday, João Neves netted a brace as Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) demolished Lionel Messi's Inter Miami 4-0, advancing to the Club World Cup quarterfinals.

PSG asserted dominance early, with Neves heading in a free kick in the sixth minute and doubling the lead in the 39th minute through excellent team play. Inter Miami's chances evaporated quickly as they struggled for possession, compounded by Tomás Avilés' own goal and Achraf Hakimi's strike before halftime.

PSG will next face Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals after Bayern's win against Flamengo. PSG coach Luis Enrique described the performance as 'almost perfect' but noted room for improvement.

After halftime, Messi became more involved, hitting a free kick against the wall and having a header saved. Inter Miami's best opportunity came when Luis Suárez broke free but failed to shoot. Coach Javier Mascherano expressed pride in his team's effort, acknowledging PSG's superiority while praising their competitiveness.
