Mamelodi Sundowns Crash Out of FIFA Club World Cup After Being Held by Fluminense

Mamelodi Sundowns have crashed out of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup after playing out a goalless draw against Brazilian side Fluminense in their final group match at the Hard Rock Stadium on Wednesday afternoon in Miami, Florida.

The Premier Soccer League giants needed a win against the South American side in order to progress to the next round after gathering three points in their first two group games: a win against Ulsan Hyundai and a narrow defeat against Borussia Dortmund.

The Brazilian Serie A side fielded a strong line-up, with former Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain defender Thiago Silva making the starting XI.

Ulsan HD are also out of the competition after losing all their three matches, while Masandawana finished with four points.
