English giants Chelsea FC have defeated French champions Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) with a commanding 3-0 win to lift the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup trophy. The final match, played at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, USA, saw the Blues dominate from start to finish.
Chelsea’s young star Cole Palmer stole the show, scoring a brilliant brace in the 22nd and 30th minutes, leaving PSG’s defense in disarray. The relentless pressure paid off again when João Pedro found the net in the 43rd minute, sealing the victory before halftime.
PSG’s troubles worsened when João Neves was shown a red card in the second half for unsportsmanlike conduct, effectively ending any hope of a comeback.
With this emphatic win, Chelsea are now world champions, marking their second triumph at the Club World Cup — a feat that has excited their fans globally, including many in Nigeria.
This latest glory signals a strong start for Chelsea’s new manager Enzo Maresca, while PSG are left to rethink their strategy after being thoroughly outclassed.
