Chelsea Crowned Club World Cup Champions with Stunning 3-0 Victory Over PSG
Chelsea has lifted the FIFA Club World Cup trophy in emphatic style, overpowering Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 in the final at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday. The win marks a historic night for the North London club, who delivered a masterclass performance against the star-studded French champions.
Coming into the final as underdogs after PSG’s demolition of Real Madrid in the semifinals, Chelsea silenced doubters with clinical precision. First-half goals from Christopher Nkunku and Cole Palmer set the tone, before Nicolas Jackson sealed the result with a second-half strike that left no room for a Parisian comeback. The Blues were dominant in all areas, outmatching PSG in pace, possession, and purpose.
Chelsea’s Tactical Brilliance Shines on the World Stage
Under the guidance of manager Thomas Frank, Chelsea executed a perfect game plan. The midfield trio of Enzo Fernández, Moisés Caicedo, and Conor Gallagher kept PSG’s engine room quiet, while the backline neutralised threats from Ousmane Dembélé and Gonçalo Ramos. Goalkeeper Robert Sánchez made crucial saves to deny Fabian Ruiz and Hakimi, preserving the clean sheet.
PSG, who had not conceded a single goal in their last five knockout matches, were stunned by Chelsea’s fluid attack and relentless pressing. Kylian Mbappe, watching from the sidelines after being ruled out due to fatigue, could only look on as his former team crumbled.
This is Chelsea’s first Club World Cup title since 2021 and their performance suggests a revival under Frank’s leadership. With the UEFA Super Cup against Tottenham coming up, the Blues have laid down a bold statement ahead of the new European season.
