The match took place at Lumen Field, where Seattle Sounders were supported by more than 50,000 home fans. The American team entered the match full of spirit and almost opened the scoring after a mistake by PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. However, the home team could not take advantage of the opportunity when the final shot sent the ball over the crossbar.
PSG gradually controlled the game after a somewhat shaky start. In the 35th minute, they took the lead thanks to a surprising situation: Vitinha's long-range shot that seemed to go out accidentally hit Kvaratskhelia's head and changed direction to fly into the net.
The Georgia midfielder did not seem to realize he had scored when he was still shocked after the collision. This goal quickly calmed down the enthusiastic atmosphere in the stands.
The second half witnessed PSG's complete initiative. After coming on as a replacement for Kvaratskhelia, Barcola immediately left his mark with a fast dribble on the left wing before crossing to Hakimi to tap the ball into the near corner, setting the score at 2-0. Despite having a few more chances, the French representative did not score any more goals, but still got what they needed, which was three points and the top spot in the group.
At the same time at Rose Bowl, Atletico Madrid entered the match against Botafogo with the task of having to win by three goals to secure their place in the next round.
Despite controlling the ball and organizing many attacks, the Spanish team had to wait until the 87th minute to get the only goal thanks to Antoine Griezmann's close-range shot after Julian Alvarez's assist. However, the remaining time was not enough for them to complete their goals.
Group B ended with 3 teams, PSG, Botafogo and Atletico, all with 6 points. Therefore, the head-to-head score between the three teams is considered, and the result is PSG in the lead with +3, Botafogo in second place with a score of 0, while Atletico is eliminated with -3.
Seattle Sounders have not won any points after 3 consecutive losses. The ineffective performance of the MLS representative is also understandable when compared to the general level of stronger teams from Europe and South America.
According to the match schedule, PSG will meet the second team of Group A at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta at 23:00 on June 29 (Hanoi time), while Botafogo will face the first team of Group A a day earlier.
