In the opening match of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025TM, representative from Korea Ulsan Hyundai will face Sundowns (South Africa). The Korean representative has been in quite inconsistent form recently, while Sundowns are leading the national championship. This promises to be a balanced and unpredictable match in Group F.
In the second match, Monterrey from Mexico will face Inter Milan. The European representative just suffered a heavy 0-5 loss to PSG in the Champions League final.
They also changed coaches when appointing Mr. Cristian Chivu to the hot seat. Mr. Chivu's debut in this tournament received many expectations.
In the late match, Man City will face Wydad (Morocco). With an all-star squad, The Citizens are a strong candidate for this year's championship. The difference in qualifications will be a factor that will cause many difficulties for the representative from Africa.
Another European giant, Real Madrid, will also play in the early morning of June 19. Los Blancos and Al Hilal have both made changes to their coaching staff in recent weeks.
At Real Madrid, they appointed Xabi Alonso to replace Carlo Ancelotti, while Al Hilal signed Simone Inzaghi after he left Inter Milan.
Despite being a weaker team, the Asian representative could be a challenge for Real Madrid's defense, scoring 95 goals in 34 matches - the team with the strongest attack in the Saudi Pro League 2024-2025.
