Real Madrid crushed by PSG in Club World Cup after Gareth Bale’s comments

Real Madrid experienced a humiliating defeat against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) at MetLife Stadium in the 2025 Club World Cup semifinals.

Xabi Alonso’s team swallowed a bitter pill with a crushing 0-4 score — eliminating them from this prestigious tournament. PSG dominated from the start with Fabian Ruiz scoring twice in the 6th and 24th minutes, while Ousmane Dembele added another goal in the 9th minute.

Real Madrid’s suffering increased when Goncalo Ramos breached their goal in the 87th minute — completing the 4-0 scoreline for PSG.

“Real Madrid will play more ferociously under Xabi Alonso,” said Gareth Bale before the match.

The former Real Madrid player’s comments backfired after his team’s total failure on the field.
