Remove ads
Group D was one of eight groups in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, an international club soccer tournament hosted in the United States and organized by FIFA. It comprised four teams: Flamengo of Brazil; Espérance de Tunis of Tunisia; Chelsea of England; and Los Angeles FC of the United States. Teams qualified by winning the respective continental club championships of their confederation or through a ranking of their performance in competitions. Only two clubs per country were allowed to qualify unless three or four won their respective continental club championship. The 2025 edition of the FIFA Club World Cup was the first in the tournament's history to be played under its quadrennial format with 32 teams.[1] The group's matches began on June 16 and concluded on June 24.[2]

Perspective
The four teams in Group D were decided by the FIFA Club World Cup draw held by FIFA on December 5, 2024, in the Miami area. The 32 participants were divided into four pots based on their confederation and ranking within FIFA's club ranking system.[3] Each of the eight groups would receive one team from each pot. Teams from the same confederation could not be drawn into the same group except for those from UEFA, which had twelve slots; teams from the same national association were not able to be drawn into the same group.[4]
Notes
- Originally, León was set to participate in the tournament as the winner of the 2023 CONCACAF Champions League. On March 21, 2025, the team was removed from the competition due to violating the FIFA Appeal Committee's rules on multi-club ownership, as León and Pachuca have the same owner. On May 6, 2025, the Court of Arbitration for Sport rejected appeals by León, Pachuca, and Alajuelense. FIFA confirmed León's exclusion and that the winner of the playoff match between Los Angeles FC and América would qualify for the Club World Cup.[5][6][7][8] On May 31, Los Angeles FC beat América 2–1 in extra time to claim the final tournament spot.[9]

Discipline
Fair play points would have been used as tiebreakers if the overall and head-to-head records of teams were tied. These were calculated based on yellow and red cards received in all group matches as follows:[10]
- first yellow card: −1 point;
- indirect red card (second yellow card): −3 points;
- direct red card: −4 points;
- yellow card and direct red card: −5 points;
Only one of the above deductions was applied to a player in a single match.
