The Blues dominated the first half with a spectacular performance that saw Cole Palmer net twice and Joao Pedro add a third, establishing an insurmountable lead against the French Ligue 1 champions.
Speaking to DAZN Football during the half-time interval, Trump expressed his enjoyment of the match and praised the tournament. "I'm having a really great time," the Republican president told reporters. "This is a tremendous sport," he added, showing his appreciation for the spectacle unfolding before him.
Chelsea maintained their defensive solidity throughout the second half, preventing PSG from mounting any meaningful comeback. The 3-0 scoreline remained unchanged until the final whistle, securing a dominant victory for the London club on the global stage.
This triumph grants Chelsea the right to wear the prestigious gold badge on their jerseys for the next four years, a symbol of their status as world champions.
