Club World Cup: Chelsea See Off LAFC In Group D Opener
FIFA Club World Cup: Goals from Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez helped Chelsea got off to a triumphant start at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 with a 2-0 win over Los Angeles FC in Group D opener at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
After initial attempts on goal from Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer, Chelsea finally picked the LAFC lock with Jackson playing a perfectly weighted ball into Neto, who cut to his left and finished with aplomb past Hugo Lloris for the opener.
To start the second stanza, LAFC looked to veteran striker and FIFA World Cup winner Olivier Giroud for a spark against his former club, but it was fellow substitute David Martinez getting Chelsea’s attention with a pair of shots that flashed wide. Ryan Hollingshead also fancied a crack from distance, only to see it swerve over the crossbar, FIFA reports.
