Real Madrid's Flight Delayed in Florida Ahead of PSG Clash Due to Storms
Severe storms sweeping through the U.S. state of Florida this week have caused a delay in Real Madrid's flight from Palm Beach Airport to New York, where they are set to face Paris Saint-Germain in the FIFA Club World Cup semifinal at MetLife Stadium.

New York – Saba: Chelsea FC will face Brazilian side Fluminense on Tuesday evening at MetLife Stadium in New York, in the semifinals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, currently underway in the United States. Both teams are vying for a spot in the final of a tournament that has already delivered several thrilling and hard-fought matches.
