After being crushed by PSG in their first match (4-0), Atl\u00e9tico Madrid managed to defeat Seattle Sounders 3-1,<\/strong> thanks to two goals from Pablo Barrios and one from Axel Witsel. The Spaniards haven’t been at their strongest, but this time, they must step up, as a three-way tie is possible, and due to goal difference, they need to win by three goals to advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Botafogo, on the other hand, showed the entire world that PSG can be beaten. The French side came in as Champions League winners, and the Brazilians gave them a taste of South American soccer.<\/strong> The “Fog\u00e3o” has shown strong defensive solidity in both matches, and that’s what they need this Monday\u2014since even a loss by two goals would still see them through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benfica has survived. First, they managed to come back and draw 2-2 against Boca Juniors after being down 2-0, scoring a late equalizer.Then, against Auckland City, the goal seemed impossibly shut until they were awarded a penalty in the final play of the first half.<\/strong> Now, they’ll face the strongest team in the group, but one that’s already qualified, so they likely won’t be the same German steamroller they usually are. A draw would be enough for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bayern Munich, for their part, took care of business\u2014crushing Auckland 10-0 and then beating Boca Juniors 2-1 in an incredible match that felt like it was played in Argentina, not the U.S., due to the large number of Boca fans. Against the Xeneizes, Bayern showed some offensive flaws, missing several scoring chances that nearly cost them the match. Even though they’re already qualified, coach Vincent Kompany said they’ll be going all out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inter has struggled in this Club World Cup. First, they drew 1-1 with Monterrey. Then, they narrowly defeated Japan’s Urawa Reds 2-1 after going down 0-1,<\/strong> with goals from Lautaro Mart\u00ednez in the 78th minute and Valent\u00edn Carboni in the 90+2. They were close to suffering a historic loss, showing that Cristian Chivu still hasn’t figured out how to get the best out of his new team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

River has also had a tough time. Although they comfortably beat Urawa Reds 3-1, they couldn’t get past a scoreless draw with Monterrey,<\/strong> losing midfielder Kevin Casta\u00f1o, who was sent off in stoppage time. The Colombian will undoubtedly be a key absence for the Argentine side, which showed a lack of finishing in that last match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A draw and a Monterrey win would result in a very peculiar three-way tie: a 0-0 would eliminate River, a 1-1 would bring goal difference and even fair play into play depending on the Rayados\u2013Urawa result and anything from 2-2 upward would send the South Americans and Europeans through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juventus took care of business, having no trouble defeating Al-Ain 5-0 and Wydad Casablanca 4-1. <\/strong>Kenan Yildiz is showing just how important he will be for the ‘Vecchia Signora’ this season, already scoring three goals, while Francisco Concei\u00e7\u00e3o and Randal Kolo Muani have each netted twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manchester City has been as expected in the Club World Cup<\/a> group stage. They first beat Wydad Casablanca 2-0 and then crushed Al-Ain 6-0,<\/strong> with Argentine Claudio Echeverri and Frenchman Rayan Cherki scoring their first goals for the ‘Citizens.’ Pep Guardiola’s side is eager to regain the dominant form that slipped away last season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
