European Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will play their first-ever Intercontinental Cup final in Doha, Qatar, on December 17, FIFA has said. The announcement came on Sunday, even as PSG's opponents will be determined four days earlier in the final playoff, called the Challenger Cup. This will pit Egyptian club Pyramids, the African champions, against the winner of the match between Central American champions Cruz Azul from Mexico and the future winner of the Copa Libertadores.
