A sad evening for Paris Saint-Germain . While many were already predicting the world championship title for the capital club before the match, Chelsea surprised everyone and won the first edition of this new trophy organized by FIFA. The Blues were far superior to the Parisians in every aspect of the game and were able to celebrate their victory alongside... Donald Trump.
But if there is one image that everyone will remember from this match, more than Cole Palmer's double or the Blues' celebration with the US president, it is Luis Enrique 's slap to João Pedro at the final whistle. "What happened at the end of the match was a situation that everyone could have avoided. I tried to separate the players; there was tension. We should all have prevented the situation from escalating. I have no problem expressing myself. After the match, there was a lot of tension. Everyone was pushing the players because of the tension. I saw Maresca pushing players, and others pushing him. These are situations that we should all avoid. So I separated the players , " the Spaniard said in a press conference .
PSG, bad losers for João Pedro
"I'm stupid. He's there, he pushes me, I touch him and he throws himself," he told members of his staff after the action, as revealed by the DAZN footage . In any case, Lucho is making headlines all over the world. And of course, we were also waiting to hear the version of events from the Brazilian Chelsea striker .
"I went to protect Andrey Santos. I saw that the players were surrounding him. As a good Brazilian, I went to protect my friend. There were a lot of people and in all that chaos, I was pushed. It's part of the game. But they don't know how to lose. Now it's time to celebrate ," the player explained to Brazilian media Sportv . A nice little dig from the Brazilian at the Parisians, who are also getting volleyed all over the European media.
