Joao Pedro made an unforgettable full debut for Chelsea, bagging a stunning brace in their 2-0 win over Fluminense to send the Blues into Sunday’s Club World Cup Final. The former Brighton star curled in a beauty from outside the box in the 18th minute and added a second with a rocket off the crossbar — against his boyhood club, no less. Out of respect, he chose not to celebrate. Former Real Madrid icon Gareth Bale and ex-Chelsea star John Obi Mikel both heaped praise on the Brazilian’s brilliance. “He’s stamped his mark instantly,” Bale noted. “He’s repaid the manager’s faith,” Mikel added. Manager Enzo Maresca explained his tactical move to start Pedro over Jackson, praising his ability to break down deep defensive blocks. Chelsea now awaits either PSG or Real Madrid in Sunday’s final, chasing their second trophy of the season after lifting the Conference League. #JoaoPedro #ChelseaFC #ClubWorldCup #CFC #ChelseaVsFluminense
