The Club World Cup is entering it's hot phas and with the round of 16 between Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Miami. Two teams that represent big names and international appeal meet in a game that generates enormous attention not only in terms of sport but also in the media. While PSG has the ambition to win the title, Inter Miami is considered an exciting outsider with a prominent line-up. The Parisians arrive with a largely well-rehearsed team and plenty of individual talent, while Miami's focus is naturally on one name in particular. Lionel Messi. Although the team from Paris is individually stronger and has recently appeared much more stable defensively, Inter Miami can offer a real difference maker in Lionel Messi, who can cause a surprise at any time in a knockout game. Therefore, we could expect goals in both nets and PSG victory. In recent games, Paris has shown significant defensive improvement. Offensively, however PSG possesses tremendous individual class, particularly through creativity and penetration in midfield. |
