The pre-tournament projections of European domination didn’t quite come to pass at the revamped Club World Cup, but the competition’s showpiece event will be contested between two UEFA members.
It’s a battle of the Champions League and Conference League winners on Sunday, with Paris Saint-Germain taking on Chelsea at MetLife.
The Parisians entered the tournament as the team to beat off the back of their stunning victory over Inter in Munich, and despite one blemish, Luis Enrique’s side have shown no signs of wilting in the American sun. They’re the best team in the world, and perhaps the finest we’ve seen for quite some time, but Chelsea have proven in the past that they can wreak havoc as the underdogs.
Here are four key battles that could decide Sunday’s Club World Cup final.
