Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro have led Chelsea to an incredible 3-0 demolition of European champions Paris Saint Germain in the FIFA Club World Cup final in New York.

England attacker Palmer slotted home almost identical strikes in the 22nd and 30th minutes to put the Londoners in control and Joao Pedro’s effort two minutes before the break effectively sealed a result, few could have predicted before the game.

Against a PSG side that had swept all before them in Europe and over the past month in the United States, Chelsea delivered a master class in pressing, played some telling passes that constantly stretched the star studded French side.

PSG were better after the break, Dembele hit the post and Vitinho fired just wide. But Chelsea’s defence held firm and Enzo Maresca’s side deservedly claimed the spoils.

To add to PSG’s misery Joao Neves was sent off for pulling Cucurella’s hair late on.
