Paris Saint-Germain s Club World Cup has nothing to do with its identity as the Triple Crown champion

The fans who look down on Paris Saint-Germain now, the fans who look down on Chelsea twenty years ago, and the fans who look down on Manchester City ten years ago are basically the same type of people. It's very simple. They have a natural sense of contempt and disgust for teams that are piled up with money. But competitive sports ultimately rely on results to speak. At that time, Chelsea was ridiculed by many people as the nouveau riche, but in the 11-12 season, a Champions League champion shut up everyone who questioned them. Manchester City was scolded more back then, but the triple-winning champions in the 22-23 season slapped everyone who looked down on them in the face.

Now, Paris Saint-Germain slaps in the face are exactly the same. If there are still people looking down on Paris Saint-Germain at this time, it can only be said to be stubborn.

Since the 21st century, the three major gold medal teams have completely consistent modes of winning the Champions League. They all advanced to the final, lost, and then reached the final again, and succeeded. Of course, Chelsea took it once more. But Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain will not fail to reach the top again in the next few years.

In fact, ordinary fans do not need to care about the way these rich teams make a fortune. As long as they rise, they bring new stimulation and new competition, it is enough. Take the Premier League as an example. The rise of Chelsea and Manchester City has made the league more lively. The two-player modes of Manchester United and Arsenal were too boring, and the gameplay of big6 is obviously much more interesting.

As for Paris Saint-Germain, their success is equivalent to throwing a bombshell into the Champions League, and the intensity of the Champions League competition has increased by another dimension. In the past, we only looked at teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Bayern, Liverpool, and now, there is another Paris Saint-German. The Champions League is even more lively.

In fact, for those fans who look down on Paris Saint-Germain, the most slap in the face is that Paris Saint-Germain's participation in the Club World Cup has nothing to do with their winning the triple-champion in the 24th to 25th season.

Because the two things of becoming a Triple Crown champion and participating in the Club World Cup are too close, it gives people the illusion that Paris Saint-Germain was shortlisted for the Club World Cup by taking advantage of the Triple Crown champion. But in fact, the European teams participating in the Club World Cup were confirmed very early. The new version of the Club World Cup is held every four years, which is similar to the World Cup competition system. As for the selection method, it mainly depends on the results of the Champions League in the past four years. In addition to choosing a champion, you also need to look at the Champions League points.

In fact, the reason why Paris Saint-Germain appeared in the Club World Cup has nothing to do with the triple-champion this season is entirely because they have performed well in the Champions League in the past four years and are ranked among the top in Europe. This further slapped the questioners in the face. Didn’t it always say that Paris Saint-Germain spent money indiscriminately? But in the past four years, their Champions League results have been very good. There is no harm without comparison. Look at Barcelona, ​​Liverpool, and Arsenal. Don’t bother with the performance of the Champions League. Have they continued to participate in the Champions League in the past four years?

champions are definitely impressive, but the evaluation results cannot be based on the championship theory. In fact, Paris Saint-Germain reached the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, and in the other 20 to 21 seasons, it is better than most European giants in these two seasons. So, in the past four years, no, it should be said that in the past five years (Paris Grande reached the finals in the 19-20 season), Paris Saint-Germain is definitely one of the most competitive teams in the Champions League. Long before they won the Triple Crown, they were qualified to participate in the Club World Cup.

From qualifying for the Club World Cup to winning the triple-champion, everything happened naturally. It can be seen that Paris Saint-Germain is on the right path. For neutral fans, isn’t it good to have a top-notch team in European football? Let’s see what kind of performance Paris Saint-Germain can perform in the Club World Cup.
