Chelsea shocked the world and dismantled Paris Saint-Germain, emphatically defeating the Champions League winners 3–0 in the Club World Cup final.
The Blues were the heavy underdogs coming into the match, but that quickly changed with a sensational first half performance. Cole Palmer was unstoppable, tormenting PSG's defense and scoring a brace in the first 30 minutes.
Right before halftime, Palmer beautifully set up João Pedro who chipped Gianluigi Donnarumma to score his third Chelsea goal in as many appearances.
Enzo Maresca's side never allowed PSG to grow into the game and controlled proceedings in the second half, cruising to the finish line. With the best performance of the Todd Bohely-Clearlake Capital ownership era, Chelsea looked back to their vintage best and conquered the first-ever expanded Club World Cup title.
