Qualified for its first Club World Cup, Fluminense already knows the dates of the two games it will play in the tournament held in Saudi Arabia, in December. And they didn’t please fans on social media.
It turns out that both the semifinals and the possible final — or the third place decision — will fall on weekdays and during business hours.

Fluminense’s title this Saturday also qualified the team for this new competition. Palmeiras, champion of the 2021 Libertadores, and Flamengo, winner in 2022, are also guaranteed, as are Chelsea-ING, Real Madrid-ESP and Manchester City-ING. The first edition will be in the USA, between June and July 2025.
