An outstanding moment of the match was Cole Pale’s goal in the 15th minute of the first half. After a center of Trevoh Chabah at the wheel he was able to finish off from the large area managing to score in the rival arch.
The prominence of Cole Pale consecrated him as the best player in the game. Chelsea’s steering wheel put 1 goal, made 31 correct passes and looked for the opposite arch with 4 shots.
It was also key at the Lincoln Financial Field stadium, Enzo Fernández. Chelsea’s steering wheel stood out in front of Palmeiras since he gave 54 correct passes and kicked the arch 4 times.
Palmeiras coach, Abel Ferreira, ordered a 4-4-2 formation with Weverton in the arch; Agustín Giay, Micael, Bruno Fuchs and Vanderlan on the defensive line; Allan, Richard Rios, Emiliano Martínez and Facundo Torres in the middle; and Estêvão and Vitor Roque in the attack.
For their part, those conducted by Enzo Maresca were planted with a 4-3-3 strategy with Robert Sánchez under the three sticks; Bad taste, Trevoh Chabah, Levi Colwill and Marc Cucurella in defense; Cole Palmer, Andrey Santos and Enzo Fernández in the middle of the court; and Pedro Neto, Liam Deap and Christopher Nkunku in the front.
The match at the Lincoln Financial Field stadium was led by referee Alireza Faghani.
The illusion of the blues with advancing to the semifinals of the tournament came true after defeating Palmeiras.
