The meeting with the Brazilian mid-table team Fluminense in Charlotte, North Carolina, ended 0–2 after Germán Cano and Hércules scored the goals. In pictures from the match, a lot of irritation and strife between the players in the different teams were visible.

The Italian top team Inter has had a few tough weeks with a second place right behind Napoli in Serie A and an elimination (0–5) against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final in Munich at the end of May. In addition, the successful coach Simone Inzaghi has left the team for al-Hilal, the top club from Saudi Arabia.

Eight of the eleven players in Monday's starting lineup in the club World Championship started also in the CL final.

On Friday, Fluminense will meet either the English top team Manchester City or al-Hilal in the quarterfinal in Orlando. The round of 16 will be decided on the night against Tuesday Swedish time, in Orlando.
