Paris St Germain Secures Knockout Spot in Club World Cup
Paris St Germain advanced to the knockout stage of the Club World Cup from Group B with a 2-0 victory over Seattle Sounders. Goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Achraf Hakimi sealed the win. Seattle, needing a large-margin victory, exits the tournament without a win.

Paris St Germain, the reigning European champions, secured their place in the knockout round of the Club World Cup with a decisive 2-0 win against the hosts, Seattle Sounders, on Monday. PSG, fresh off a surprising loss to Botafogo, clinched the victory through goals scored by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Achraf Hakimi.
The French giants concluded the group stage with a total of six points from three matches. In contrast, the Seattle Sounders, who required a victory by at least three goals to stay in contention, were unable to win any of their home games and bowed out of the tournament.
PSG's triumph not only sets them on course for further success in the Club World Cup but also signals their resilience following an earlier defeat, reinforcing their strong standing in international football.
