After a month of competition, Chelsea and PSG will face each other to determine the first champion of the 32-team FIFA Club World Cup.

Chelsea have won the tournament once before, but in the old format. PSG have yet to win the title. The French team is in devastating form, having only lost one goal on their way to the final.

The stars like Dembele, Doue, Ruiz, Kvaratskhelia... are playing brilliantly, making every defense terrified. In the semi-finals, PSG "crushed" Real Madrid 4-0, enough to show their strength.

Obviously, Chelsea's squad is hard to compare with PSG's. But on the contrary, the English team is often favored by luck in the finals. In the times when they had to play as "underdogs", Chelsea often played well to win the title.

Chelsea's ability to defend, even "defend to the death", is always well demonstrated in situations like this.

So who will be the team to have the joy of victory? The final match of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 will be broadcast online on Tuoi Tre Online from 1:30 a.m. on July 14, here. We invite readers to follow.
