Estevao Willian scores first Club World Cup goal against Chelsea

Estevao Willian marked a historic moment in his career — scoring his first FIFA Club World Cup 2025 goal as Palmeiras faced Chelsea at Lincoln Financial Field.

The 18-year-old striker managed to beat Robert Sanchez in the 53rd minute — exploiting a tight space on the left side of defense with his right-footed shot.

Chelsea ultimately won the match 2-1 through Cole Palmer’s goal in the 16th minute and Agustin Giay’s own goal in the 83rd minute — ending Palmeiras’ journey in this tournament.
