Kylian Mbappe’s Real Madrid will look to secure a spot in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final as they face off against PSG.
The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup is slowly reaching its final stages, and one big question remains: who will join Chelsea in the tournament’s decisive match? Kylian Mbappe’s Real Madrid will look to punch their ticket to the final, but to get there, they’ll have to get past none other than the reigning European champions — PSG.
Xabi Alonso’s side reached this stage after a thrilling and back-and-forth quarterfinal clash against Borussia Dortmund, which ended in a 3–2 victory for the Merengues. Rising star Gonzalo Garcia netted a brace, while the third goal came from the French star, Mbappe.
On the other side, the reigning UEFA Champions League winners booked their spot in the semifinals after a hard-fought and eventful victory over fellow German side Bayern Munich. The final score was 2–0, as the Parisians sent Vincent Kompany’s team packing thanks to goals from Desire Doue and Ousmane Dembele.
With a MetLife Stadium filled with passionate supporters from both sides, all that’s left is for the ball to start rolling. Soon, we’ll find out who will join the Blues in the final of this thrilling tournament that has captured the attention of football fans around the world.

Is Mbappe playing today for Real Madrid?
In these decisive stages of major tournaments, coaches often turn to their very best options. However, with Kylian Mbappe having missed recent matches due to health issues, the big question is: will Xabi Alonso change his approach this time and bring his star forward back into the Real Madrid‘s starting lineup?
Based on the lineups the head coach has used in recent matches—where the French superstar came off the bench due to the outstanding form of Gonzalo Garcia—it appears likely that Mbappe will once again start the semifinal on the sidelines.
As the minutes tick by, it remains to be seen whether the need to bring one of the world’s top forwards onto the pitch will become imperative—or if the flow of the match will allow him to remain a limited participant.
Chelsea await in the Final
The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup already has one finalist secured, and it’s Chelsea from England. After dispatching Fluminense—the only non-European team left in the tournament—with a solid 2–0 victory, the Blues have booked their place in the final.
Joao Pedro was the standout performer of the day, scoring a brace for his team while delivering an elite-level performance. Now, Maresca’s side will await their next opponent, who will come from the showdown between Real Madrid and PSG.
