Gusto booked
Cole Palmer opened the scoring in the 16th minute with a well-taken finish but he was upstaged in the second half. Estevao, who will join Chelsea after this tournament, scored a superb equaliser to bring the Brazilians back into the game.
With the game seemingly headed for extra time, the Premier League side retook the lead as Malo Gusto's cross took two deflections on its way into the net.

🤯 This is football! World Cup delivers madness in stoppage time and more
🤯 This is football! World Cup delivers madness in stoppage time and more Saturday (5) of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup ended in GREAT style. Real Madrid was winning a "dragged" game against Borussia Dortmund until Brazilian referee Ramon Abel Abatti indicated the added time: five minutes. Advertisement And THEN EVERYTHING CHANGED. You can sign up for DAZN to watch all FIFA Club World Cup games for free. They were minutes of INSANITY, THREE goals, expulsion, and a MIRACLE preventing a tiebreaker that would be considered completely unlikely. It didn't owe ANYTHING to the final stretch of PSG x Bayern with two expulsions, goal, and penalty annulled. See what else stood out on social media. It just happened like that... Simply C-O-U-R-T-O-I-S-! Practically that, right? There was a great goal from Mbappé + tribute to Diogo Jota And it had already happened... The final stretch of Real x BVB had "softened" the craziness that was PSG x Bayern. Advertisement PSG was winning 1-0 and had lost Pacho, who was expelled at 36 minutes of the second half. Kane even scored at 41', but was in an offside position. Came the added time (six minutes) and MORE emotion. Lucas Hérnandez also received the red card. Leaving PSG with NINE players on the field. Dembélé hit the crossbar at 50', but soon after scored the second goal for the French team after a play by Hakimi. Anthony Taylor marked a penalty for Nuno Mendes on Müller at 52'. 📸 Alex Grimm - 2025 Getty Images But the VAR showed only a touch on the ball. And the duel ended only at 56'. Is it Thiago Silva's World Cup? The Fluminense defender found out on Saturday that he will face his last team in Europe in the semifinal. Advertisement 📸 Megan Briggs - 2025 Getty Images And may face ANOTHER former club in a possible final thanks to PSG's classification over Bayern. Thiago Silva had a great time at the French club between 2012 and 2020. He was captain, reference, and won 24 titles. He arrived at Chelsea "discredited" at 35 years old with a one-year contract. He stayed for four years, won his first Champions League, and also became an idol. The sequence of his career had his return to Fluminense. He had won the 2007 Copa do Brasil and stood out in the vice-Libertadores squad in 2008 before heading to Milan. He returned to be decisive in last year's Brasileirão and now tries to take Tricolor to the World Cup final. Advertisement It's certain that Milan would have been the other semifinalist if they had competed in the tournament... This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

Real Madrid Beats Dortmund and Will Play PSG in Club World Cup Semifinals
Kylian Mbappé's spectacular bicycle kick was among three goals in second-half stoppage time, and Real Madrid beat Borussia Dortmund 3-2 in a Club World Cup quarterfinal match on Saturday as goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois used his fingertips to palm away the potential tying goal on the game's final play. Gonzalo García and Fran García scored in the first 20 minutes as Madrid built a 2-0 lead. Dortmund's Maximilian Beier scored three minutes into stoppage time and Mbappé, who entered in the 67th, restored a two-goal lead with his bicycle kick one minute later. Serhou Guirassy converted a penalty kick in the eighth minute of added time after he was fouled by Dean Huijsen, who received a red card and will miss the semifinals. Courtois used all of the lengthy arm on his 6-foot-7 frame to tip away Marcel Sabitzer's shot just before the final whistle. Madrid advanced to a semifinal match against Champions League winner Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday, a day after Chelsea meets Brazilian club Fluminense. On a sunny afternoon with an 86-degree (30-degree Celsius) temperature at the 3 p.m. kickoff, Gonzalo García scored in the 10th minute and Fran García in the 20th. Gonzalo García, a 21-year-old who made only five Spanish league appearances in the past two seasons, was given the start by new Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso over Mbappé, still regaining fitness after acute gastroenteritis. García has four goals, tying Benfica's Ángel Di María and Al-Hilal's Marcos Leonardo for the tournament lead. Mbappé came on for Jude Bellingham, who missed a chance to play against his brother Jobe, who was suspended for yellow-card accumulation. Madrid beat Dortmund 2-0 in the 2024 Champions League final and overcame a two-goal halftime deficit in a 5-2 victory of this season's league phase. Los Blancos were eliminated by Arsenal in this year's Champions League quarterfinals. Madrid has won five consecutive games against Dortmund and is unbeaten in seven since a 2014 Champions League quarterfinal defeat. American midfielder Gio Reyna didn't get off the bench and finished the tournament with one 13-minute appearance for Dortmund in five matches. This game drew 76,611 to MetLife Stadium, site of next year's World Cup final. Seats looked filled, except for a completely empty suite level on one side. There was a moment of silence before kickoff for Liverpool's Diogo Jota and his brother, Penafiel's André Silva, who died in a car crash on Thursday. Key moment Courtois' final save on the game's final play to preserve the victory. Takeaways Construction to remove seats in the corners enabled a 74-by-114-yard (68-by-105-meter) field, wider than for matches during the 2016 and 2024 Copa America tournaments.
