There is very little time left for the final match to be played on July 13th. Two of these four teams were predictable teams. I think everyone guessed Paris Saint Germain and Real Madrid. Fluminense was a big surprise. Especially their wins over Al Hilal and Inter showed us that they are also surprise favorites. I think they have the potential to do everything and reach the final in the match they will play against Chelsea right now. However, I still think that the winner of Real Madrid Paris Saint-Germain can win this cup.
All the speculations have started around the Real Madrid team, I would have been in their favor too, but still I love the team for Mbappe because of his fast football and his strong will to score goals. We missed him in the opening match of the Club World Cup, but he came back and scored a valuable goal against Dortmund. Considering his illness, he should play full time in the semi-final match so that Real Madrid can reach the final.
I don't think Xabi will risk him. He can still put Mbappé on in the second half. Also, young player Gonzalo has managed this deficiency very well so far. I'm sure Xabi has some thoughts on this issue. Because the Paris Saint-Germain match will never be easy. Mbappé who can enter the game in the second half and tear apart the tired defense can be more effective. Also, as you said, he hasn't fully recovered from his illness, so he may not play the full 90 minutes. Considering the possibility of the game going to extra time, I think it would be more logical for him to enter the game in the second half.
