CHELSEA DEFEATS PSG TO CLINCH FIFA CLUB WORLD CUP TITLE
Chelsea FC delivered a commanding display to secure the FIFA Club World Cup trophy, outclassing Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) 3-0 in the final at the King Fahd International Stadium.
The Blues dominated proceedings from the opening whistle, employing a relentless high press and executing clinical finishes. The breakthrough came in the 18th minute when Christopher Nkunku unleashed a powerful strike from outside the box, igniting celebrations among Chelsea supporters.
Despite PSG fielding a star-studded lineup, they found it difficult to penetrate Chelsea’s well-organized defense and midfield. The London club doubled their lead just before halftime through Raheem Sterling, who calmly finished after a rapid counterattack orchestrated by Enzo Fernández.
Chelsea’s superiority was further underscored in the 72nd minute when Reece James capitalized on a precise cross from Mykhailo Mudryk, sealing the victory and putting the result beyond any doubt.
The triumph marks Chelsea’s second FIFA Club World Cup title, further cementing their position among global football’s elite. Manager Mauricio Pochettino commended his team’s discipline and energy, describing it as “a historic night for the club and its supporters.”
Meanwhile, PSG’s wait for international silverware continues as they reflect on a missed opportunity at the global stage.
With this victory, Chelsea wraps up a remarkable season and sets a high bar heading into the next campaign
