😉 Blue brilliance
Chelsea beat Los Angeles FC 2-0, with goals from Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernández.
What really caught the attention in the match was the great goal by the Portuguese striker, still in the first half.
This is because, when receiving in speed on the right side, Pedro Neto made an absurd cut on the opponent, who threw himself on the cart and ended up far away.
Check out the referee’s camera!
Ref cam is everything 🤯

Battle 🇦🇷 x 🇵🇹
Boca Juniors and Benfica definitely made the best game of the day and, with a 2-2 score, one of the best games of the Club World Cup so far.
The Brazilian fans on social media even gave a “truce” in the rivalry with the Argentines to celebrate the partial victory over the Portuguese in the first half.
Boca tried everything to hold the result. There was no lack of catimba, either.

But in the end, Otamendi’s header goal decreed the 2-2 draw. And, as an Argentine, he made a point of provoking the rivals in the stands.
Torcedor do River Plate, Otamendi comemorou o gol na frente da torcida do Boca Juniors e irritou jogadores do time argentino.

The match was so crazy that even the referee, Mexican César Ramos, gave a red card to Figal, from Boca Juniors, with an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe!

💪 Flamengo’s debut
Flamengo played their first match in the tournament.
The entry of the players on the field drew attention.
There was even someone who saw similarities with when WWE characters (a popular “wrestling” program in the US) walk to the fights.

With the ball rolling, there was brilliance from Arrascaeta, who opened the scoring, and Jorginho – a reinforcement for the World Cup and who gave a great assist for Luiz Araújo to give the final numbers to the match.

In the “cold numbers”, Flamengo leads Group D for having fewer yellow cards than Chelsea!
And then, it doesn’t matter, the teasing has already taken over social media!
VEM TRANQUILO, CHELSEA!!! 😎 pic.twitter.com/SqpZOw9m4w
