At 3 am on June 16, 2025, the Club World Cup ushered in a highly anticipated showdown, with Paris Saint-Germain fighting at Atletico Madrid. The game ended with a huge gap of 4-0, and Paris took a perfect revenge and completely suppressed Atletico Madrid. During the game, Atletico Madrid accidentally missed an incredible scoring opportunity, and coach Simeone knelt helplessly, unable to believe it.

Recalling last November, the two teams had a clash in the Champions League group stage. At that time, Atletico Madrid staged a final victory in the 93rd minute, defeating Paris 2-1. But after seven months, the Paris team has been completely renewed and is now a strong team to be proud of. Not only do they have stable ball control skills, they can also threaten through quick counterattacks and multiple offensive methods, and the team runs smoother and smoother.

Facing the new Champions League champion Paris, Atletico Madrid has almost no power to fight back. They were 0-2 in the first half, made no four shots, and only enjoyed a 25% possession rate, and were completely at a disadvantage. At the Rose Bowl Stadium, the audience was expecting a strong conversation with sparks, but they did not expect to witness a one-sided crush.

to the 70th minute, Atletico Madrid attempted to make a substitution to strengthen the offense, and Sollot was replaced. However, at 82 minutes, he missed an amazing opportunity to score. After successfully counterattacked in the frontcourt, Atletico Madrid quickly launched an attack. Before Marcos Llorent on the right hand entered the goal, Sollot prepared to push the ball just 2 meters away from the goal. Logically speaking, this goal seemed to be unsuspecting, but what was surprising was that his push shot was ridiculously high and flew directly to the stands!

This opportunity was an "unbelievable miss". Sollot's mistake shocked all Atletico players in place, looking at each other in an unacceptable way. The coaching staff members on the side also collapsed. Simeone, 55, planned to celebrate, but could only kneel down in despair, and the assistant coach could only spend this tragic moment with him.

In addition to this shocking miss, Atletico Madrid also scored another goal due to VAR penalty. In the 58th minute, Simeone Jr. assisted Alvarez, but the referee blew the goal off due to Cork's foul on Douai. In response, Simeone expressed her anger and dissatisfaction with applause.

For Atletico Madrid and Simeone, the disastrous defeat in this game is unprecedented. According to OPTA statistics, this is the first time in 14 years that Simeone has encountered a double red card in a game, conceded 4 goals and was awarded a penalty, which is a heartbreaking defeat.
