With a heroic performance of Matvey Safonov, PSG defeated Flamengo in the 2025 FIFA Intercontinental Cup final, edging their name in the soccer history with their impressive sextuple and becoming the most dominant French side of the recent years.

Chelsea lifted their 2nd FIFA Club World Cup title, adding to 2021's triumph earlier. Goals from Cole Palmer (2) and Joao Pedro secured the title for Maresca's men.

The official account of the FIFA World Cup on the social network X (ex. Twitter) praised the performance of the Russian goalkeeper of the French football club Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) Matvey Safonov in the Intercontinental Cup final against Flamengo.

The FIFA Intercontinental Cup is an annual tournament where the UEFA Champions League winner is pitted against the best club champion from six confederations.

There is confusion, debate, and curiosity around what this match actually represents — and how PSG could still claim a form of global supremacy despite another club officially holding soccer’s highest crown.

The Spanish coach takes home the award after an almost perfect season with PSG, in which only the Club World Cup eluded him. The manager beats Javier Aguirre, Mikel Arteta, Hansi Flick, Enzo Maresca, Roberto Martínez, and Arne Slot.
