President Donald Trump stole the show on the pitch as he was arguably the center of attention at Sunday’s FIFA Club World Cup final.
Trump and first lady Melania Trump were at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey to witness Chelsea’s dominant performance against PSG. Two goals from Cole Palmer and one from new addition João Pedro gave Chelsea a 3-0 victory, making Chelsea the inaugural winners of the newly formatted competition.
