Chelsea Demolishes PSG 3 - 0 in Finals Reigning Supreme as World Club Champions {Watch}
Cole Palmer produced a scintillating first-half masterclass as Chelsea demolished Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 to win the Club World Cup final at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium on Sunday.
The English attacking midfielder scored twice and provided an assist for João Pedro in a devastating display that revamped the.......
tournament's decider that left the European and French champions, who finished with 10 men, stunned before the break.
Chelsea, who won the 2021 Club World Cup in its previous format, struck first in the 22nd minute when PSG fullback Nuno Mendes gifted possession to Malo Gusto.
After his initial effort was blocked by Mendes, Gusto collected the rebound and found Palmer unmarked in the middle and the midfielder made no mistake, slotting a tidy finish just inside the left post.
Palmer doubled the lead after the 30th-minute cooling break with a goal of sublime quality. Latching onto a precise through ball from Levi Colwill, he cut inside before faking a pass to dummy a defender and firing into the bottom left corner.
Palmer then turned provider, running up the channel before finding Joao Pedro, who took the ball in his stride and beat the offside trap before chipping his finish beautifully over keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
PSG's misery was completed when João Neves was sent off for pulling Marc Cucurella's hair in the 83rd minute, as PSG's players grew in frustration as the match progressed.
Congratulations to Chelsea FC, I, Chief-Editor Mikael, really do hope this joy is not short-lived¡
