In the Club World Cup Round of 16 clash between PSG and Inter Miami, the match offered little intrigue. Lionel Messi's side simply couldn't put up a worthy fight against the reigning UEFA Champions League winners.
The Argentine star himself had a rather lackluster performance, despite registering four shots on target. His passing accuracy stood at 89%, but even those numbers were overshadowed by the brilliance of PSG's lineup.
Messi managed just 48 touches throughout the match—remarkably, Inter's goalkeeper touched the ball only six times fewer. PSG fans in the stands didn't miss the chance to poke fun at the player who, not so long ago, wore their club's colors.
As a reminder, after their victory over the American side, PSG advanced to the quarterfinals of the prestigious tournament. Luis Enrique's squad will now face the winner of Flamengo vs Bayern Munich.
