The victory in the early morning of July 14 not only helped Chelsea win their second title of the season, but also marked an unprecedented milestone in the history of world football. The London team completed a collection of: Champions League, Europa League, Conference League, and both versions of the FIFA Club World Cup - an achievement that no club had achieved before.
Remarkably, Chelsea accomplished this entire feat in just 6 years. Since the 2018/19 season, “The Blues” have defeated Arsenal to win the Europa League, defeated Manchester City in the 2020/21 Champions League final, and then won the 2021 Club World Cup by beating Palmeiras 2-1.
Most recently, they beat Real Betis 4-1 to win the UEFA Conference League - thereby becoming the first club to win all three European trophies. And now, with the 32-team version of the 2025 Club World Cup, Chelsea have officially "completed" all international competitions at club level.
This is Chelsea’s eighth international final since 2012, winning seven of them. The Blues are also the only English club to have won the Club World Cup twice – a feat both in terms of quantity and historical value.
After a turbulent period under owner Todd Boehly - Clearlake Capital, this world championship is like an affirmation of the strong return of Chelsea, a true giant of European football since the beginning of the 21st century.
