Joao Pedro scores twice, Chelsea advances to Club World Cup final

Joao Pedro delivered a brilliant performance to guide Chelsea into the 2025 Club World Cup final after defeating Fluminense at MetLife Stadium.

The Brazilian striker scored two crucial goals — one in the first half through a powerful shot from outside the penalty box in the 18th minute, and another in the second half through individual brilliance in the 56th minute.

Chelsea now awaits the winner between PSG and Real Madrid in the final. The advancement to the final also brings significant financial impact for the club — the prize money nearly equals half of Pedro’s transfer fee to the West London club.
