PSG vs Atletico Madrid live updates: Club World Cup 2025 predictions, team news, latest score

As Felipe noted there, the Rose Bowl is a) no stranger to hosting marquee soccer games and b) not actually in the city of Los Angeles, despite FIFA referring to it as the Los Angeles site for the Club World Cup.

The Rose Bowl sits in the suburb of Pasadena, Calif., roughly 10 miles (16 kilometers) northeast of downtown Los Angeles, where protests have erupted over the past week-plus against deportation raids carried out by U.S. federal Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. The heart of downtown Los Angeles is currently under a nightly curfew imposed by mayor Karen Bass after some of the protests turned violent last weekend.

Pasadena’s own mayor, Victor Gordo, said Thursday that no federal immigration enforcement has taken place inside the city recently. Like many other Los Angeles suburbs, Pasadena has also seen smaller protests against ICE and President Donald Trump in recent days, but those have been completely peaceful with no reports of violence.
