PSG Boss Luis Enrique Appears To Slap Chelsea Striker Joao Pedro In The Face After Club World Cup Defeat (Video)

Chelsea’s 3-0 triumph over Paris Saint-Germain in the FIFA Club World Cup final ended in dramatic fashion, as tensions boiled over following the final whistle.

The Blues claimed victory with a first-half brace from Cole Palmer and a goal from Joao Pedro, becoming the first team to win the newly expanded tournament.

However, celebrations took a chaotic turn when PSG manager Luis Enrique appeared to strike Chelsea striker Joao Pedro in the face during a heated post-match confrontation between both sides.

Joao Pedro found himself in the middle of a tense clash with PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma and defender Achraf Hakimi shortly after the final whistle. As the confrontation escalated, PSG manager Luis Enrique approached the scene.

Instead of calming things down, the Spanish coach appeared to get physical—placing his hands on Pedro, who then collapsed to the ground, clutching his face. Enrique was quickly restrained by PSG defender Presnel Kimpembe, preventing the situation from spiraling further out of control.
