Chelsea Crushes PSG To Claim Historic FIFA Club World Cup Title
Chelsea FC have etched their name in the history books by winning the inaugural edition of the expanded FIFA Club World Cup, thrashing Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday night.
Despite being labeled underdogs ahead of the final, the Blues delivered a clinical performance, dominating the match from start to finish and silencing the French giants within the first 45 minutes.
England sensation Cole Palmer was the standout performer, netting two brilliant goals in the opening 27 minutes to put Chelsea firmly in control. The momentum continued as new signing Joao Pedro—who joined the squad mid-tournament from Brighton—added a third goal in the 42nd minute, completing a stunning first-half display.
PSG tried to respond in the second half, but Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez rose to the occasion with two top-class saves, preserving the clean sheet and maintaining Chelsea’s dominance.
The night went from bad to worse for the French side when Joao Neves was sent off late in the game for unsporting behavior—pulling Marc Cucurella’s hair—capping off a frustrating night for PSG.
With this emphatic victory, Chelsea not only lifted their first FIFA Club World Cup under the new format but also sent a clear message to the rest of Europe—they're back, and they're hungry for more.
