Joao Neves scored twice as Paris St-Germain demolished Inter Miami 4-nil to reach the quarter-finals of the FIFA Club World Cup.

The European champions were always expected to brush off the team who sit sixth in Major League Soccer's Eastern Conference - and so it proved.

Neves stooped down to head Vitinha's free-kick in from close range for their sixth-minute opener in Atlanta.

The Portugal midfielder got the second goal too in the 39th minute when he slotted in to cap off a fine passing move involving Bradley Barcola and Fabian Ruiz, who also had a goal disallowed himself for offside.

PSG added two more before half-time as Desire Doue's cross was turned into his own net by Tomas Aviles, before Achraf Hakimi slammed a fourth in added time after his initial effort had been deflected on to the bar.

The French champions eased up in the second half, shutting out their old boy Lionel Messi, who had a couple of chances for Inter Miami.

In the quarter-finals confirmed so far, PSG will play Bayern Munich at 4am on Sunday while Chelsea takes on Palmeiras at 1am on Saturday.
