Chelsea player explains what Blues had which PSG didn’t in stunning win | OneFootball

Chelsea are Club World Cup winners after an impressive 3-0 win over PSG on Sunday, and a huge amount of credit needs to go to Malo Gusto.

There were doubts about him before kick off, but he ended up playing a vital role in the win.

Speaking to the club’s official website after full time, Gusto explained a little about how his side had overturned the odds and beaten PSG.

“We’re a very close-knit, which, as I said, given that we’re young, means we all have pretty much the same interests, so that obviously helps. We’re really happy to win this kind of trophy on the international stage,” Gusto explained.

“I try to give my all every time I’m on the pitch, to help the team as much as possible. That’s what I did in this game.”

“We were very tired, but none of the players who were on the pitch let up, and those who came on also gave their all. I think that’s what made the difference for us on Sunday.”

Certainly the effort levels were off the charts and set up apart from PSG, who were never able to get into gear and match us.

“Everyone knows [Cole Palmer] now, and everyone knew him before, too. He’s a top player, like many others in this team. He did us a lot of good on Sunday, so we can be happy. He’s always a bit in his own world, a bit reserved, but he’s a very good person. He knows when to speak up and he knows how to be funny to lighten the mood a bit.

“We all get along really well, and it’s great to have players like him in the team.”
