Speaker 1 (00:03):
Calaruga, Shark Media, Jamie run here with the Messi effect,
your daily dive into the world of lineal, and everyone
else trying to share the spotlight. Sunday served up three
big stories, and yes, one of them was Messi, just
not in the way we'd hoped. Let's get into it.
(00:23):
Paris Sanjermain made quick work of into Miami, coasting to
a four zero win that felt more like a scrimmage
than a Club World Cup knockout game. Juo Neves scored twice,
Ahraf Hakimi added a third, and Tomas Aviles contributed with
a misjudged own goal. PSG barely had to get out
(00:43):
of second gear. By halftime, it was four to zero
and done. Messi had only fourteen touches by the break.
Luis Suarez had seventeen. Serhio Busquez completed ten passes. These
are not stats you want from your Marky trio. Messi
did get his moment, a late free kick from just
(01:04):
outside the area. He stepped up, the crowd held its breath.
He hit the wall. The symbolism rights itself. Javi Air
Mascarano had said before the match that inter didn't expect
to be here on Sunday, PSG made sure they wouldn't
be staying. The European champs looked every bit the title
favorites Miami. They looked like guests at someone else's party. Meanwhile,
(01:28):
over in Miami gardens, Harry Kane was busy being Harry Kane.
Bayern Munich beat Flamengo four to two in a wild
open match that had it all goals, mistakes, drums, noise,
and yes, another Caine brace. Flamengo actually looked dangerous and
put up more shots than Byan, but they also handed
(01:50):
over two goals via unforced errors. Bian took a two
zero lead in the first half thanks to a Cane
screamer and a Leon Gerretzka finish. Flamengo pulled one back
through Gerson, only for Byn to instantly respond. Flamengo made
it three to two with a Jrgino penalty and pushed
hard for the equalizer, but Kine showed up again, finishing
(02:13):
cleanly to kill it off with fifteen minutes left. Buy
and move on to face PSG in the quarter finals.
That's Kin versus MBA. Pay yes please. Then there was
the usmnt A two to two draw, a wild shootout.
A new hero, Matt Freese made three saves in the
penalty shootout to carry the US past Costa Rica and
(02:35):
into the Gold Cup semifinals. This is a guy who
only recently took over as starter on Sunday. He stood tall,
first low to his left, then flat out, stopping Francisco Calvo,
then denying Andy Rojas to end it. Three saves game
over regulation time wasn't exactly a highlight reel for the US.
(02:56):
They went down early after Max Afsten gave up a penalty,
Malick Tilman missed one at the other end. Eventually, Afston
redeemed himself, setting up Diego Luna for the equalizer, then
scoring one himself. It looked like the US had it,
but Costa Rica fought back, tied it at two to two,
and nearly stole it late when Alonzo Martinez hit the post.
(03:20):
Into penalties they went where Freeze took over. Tyler Adams
and Tilman converted. Burhalter missed, and John Tolkien had a
chance to win it but was denied by Navas. Thankfully,
Damyon Downs ended it moments later, so the US advanced
to face Guatemala on Wednesday. It wasn't pretty, but it counts.
(03:42):
Two more big games on deck for Monday. At three
pm Eastern, inter Milan faced Fluminense in Charlotte. In looked
sharp in their last outing, and they'll need to stay
compact to stop a Flumenense team that loves to stretch
the field. Lautaro Martinez is the danger man to watch. Then,
at nine pm Eastern, Manchester City take on Al Hilal
(04:04):
in Orlando. Arling Harland has been quiet so far and
that should terrify Al Hilal. City's midfield has been purring
as usual, with de Bruyne and Roder pulling the strings.
Al Hilal will need something close to perfect to stay
in this. That's it for today's messy effect. PSG and
buy and roll on, Messi takes a bow, Freese becomes
(04:26):
a folk hero and Monday's matches are loaded. I'm Jamie Rudd.
Talk to you tomorrow.
