On Sunday night, following the conclusion of the Club World Cup quarter-finals, FIFA announced their all-tournament squad. Paris Saint-Germain, having defeated Bayern Munich with a scoreline of 2-0, has three representatives in this lineup.
Achraf Hakimi, a 26-year-old defender; João Neves, a 20-year-old midfielder; and Désiré Doué, a 20-year-old midfielder/forward, are not unexpected selections for this starting lineup, although each choice remains open to discussion due to strong competition. Hakimi continued to perform well throughout the match, earning an important last-minute pass that led to a key assist. Neves was present to create the first goal and delivered a solid performance during the game.
Doué showed more variability, with his choices not as "clear-cut." However, he still managed to score an excellent goal. And that's ultimately what matters, particularly when trying to break the stalemate in a very intense game. Maybe other players might have been involved (such as Gianluigi Donnarumma, Nuno Mendes, or Marquinhos), yet Paris still faced difficulties, and there's significant rivalry throughout this competition.
