PSG manager grabs Chelsea player by throat at end of Club World Cup final
@Source: yardbarker.com
The end of Sunday’s FIFA Club World Cup final was marred by a heated incident involving Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique.
English club Chelsea was victorious during Sunday’s final against French giant PSG at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. Chelsea won 3-0 in a major upset over PSG, a powerhouse club that just won the UEFA Champions League (the annual competition of all the top clubs in Europe) in May. As a result, the Blue claimed their second-ever Club World Cup trophy as well as their second trophy in the span of the last two months (after winning the UEFA Conference League title in May).
While Chelsea was celebrating their triumph after the final whistle, players from both teams began exchanging words. At one point, Chelsea forward Joao Pedro, who scored in the 43rd minute for his club’s third goal of the contest, got into it with PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma and right-back Achraf Hakimi.
That led to PSG manager Luis Enrique coming in and grabbing Pedro by the throat. Pedro ended up falling to the ground as a result of the combined contact from Enrique and Donnarumma.
