Chelsea FC beat European champions Paris Saint Germain 3-0 to lift the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 at the Metlife Stadium on June 14. First half goals from Cole Palmer (2) and new signing Joao Pedro confirmed the win for the Blues who lifted their 2nd Club World Cup title in their history.
The first half of the game belonged to Chelsea who ran riot past the European champions courtesy of a Cole palmer masterclass. Palmer opened the scoring in the 20th minute with a cool and composed finish from inside the box into the bottom left corner. Minutes later, the former Manchester City player was on strike again, putting the PSG defenders away with a cheeky fake to the right and then calmly slotting in Chelsea's 2nd goal into the bottom left corner again to double the lead.
His contribution was again valuable on the day when he found new signing Joao Pedro inside the box with his through pass with the striker brilliantly dinking the ball over Donarumma's head to make it 3-0 with 5 minutes left before half-time. Maresca would never have dreamed of such a start from his side and would be confident of victory now.
The second half too was pretty routine for the Blues who defended well against a flurry of PSG chances which couldn't pierce through the defence at the end of the day. A lot of credit to goalkeeper Robert Sanchez too who saved the few chances that went past the defenders.
Liam Delap, who replaced Pedro in the 2nd half made an instan impact and almost scored the 4th if it wasn't for Donarumma who saved the shot flying into the right corner fo the goal.
The former Ipswich striker looked sharp on the night and would be looking forward to his season ahead with Chelsea. PSG midfielder Ruben Neves had a bad ending to his final as he was sent off in the 85th minute for pulling Marc Cucurella's hair on the pitch. The VAR check confirmed the violent conduct as he was later shown the red card.
Maresca's game plan worked wonders against Enrique's PSG as Chelsea were able to beat PSG's press on multiple occasions and utlilised their chances to the best of their abilities.
Chelsea now have 2 FIFA Club World Cups to their name, adding to the 2021 triumph.
