Flamengo mocks Chelsea

Flamengo taunted Chelsea on social media after their 3-1 victory in matchday 2 of Group D of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™ on the morning of June 21st.

The second shock at the FIFA Club World Cup: In the early hours of June 21st, Chelsea lost 1-3 to Flamengo in the group stage of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™.

Under the leadership of Filipe Luis, the Brazilian team demonstrated their strength at this year's FIFA Club World Cup 2025™ by defeating European representative Chelsea. This victory not only brought Flamengo closer to the knockout round but also confirmed that South American teams are not just weak guests at the tournament.

Immediately after the match, Flamengo's X account posted humorous images aimed at Chelsea, including a post about the temperature at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The Flamengo account sent the message: "Too hot for 'Cold' Palmer." This was a pun intended to mock the Chelsea midfielder.

Not stopping there, Flamengo continued to provoke Chelsea by replacing the lion on the Chelsea badge with a character from the movie "A Bug's Life," implying Flamengo's superiority over their rivals. However, after the image went viral, the Brazilian club quickly removed it.

This is only the second time in history that a South American team has defeated a European opponent by more than one goal in the history of the Club World Cup. Previously, only Vasco da Gama had achieved the same feat when they beat Manchester United 3-1 in 2000.

Flamengo are leading Group D with a perfect 6 points after two matches. They only need a draw in their final match against LAFC next week to secure a place in the Round of 16.

With their attractive attacking style and confident handling of the ball by their players, Flamengo has become one of the most exciting teams to watch at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™.
