Chelsea’s FIFA Club World Cup final win against Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday was marred by a post-match on-field brawl at MetLife Stadium involving PSG coach Luis Enrique, goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, defender Achraf Hakimi and Chelsea forward João Pedro.

With Chelsea’s players celebrating their victory, a number of PSG players confronted goalscorer Pedro outside the centre-circle before Luis Enrique appeared to shove the forward, who was squaring up to Hakimi and Donnarumma.

Pedro fell to the ground and more shoving and pushing continued before Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca intervened to move away his fellow Italian, Donnarumma.

The confrontations continued on the pitch as the post-match presentation stage began to be wheeled onto the playing surface.
