Inter Miami CF left-back Jordi Alba said the team lived up to the expectations of the Club World Cup despite falling 4-0 to Paris Saint-Germain in the round of 16 to be eliminated from the competition.

Despite Inter Miami advancing to the knockout stages of the FIFA Club World Cup, fans who await a strong PSG in the Round of 16 have some concerns. The Herons were leading 2-0 in the 65th minute when Luis Suarez scored a brilliant goal that felt like the decisive moment for Inter Miami to top Group A.

The French champions coasted past Miami and will face Bayern Munich in Atlanta in a Club World Cup quarterfinal on July 5. Now, there is no shame in losing to PSG. This is a team that had thumped Atlético Madrid 4-0 in the group stage after routing Inter Milan 5-0 in the Champions League final in May.
