Benfica boss Jose Mourinho made an astonishing intervention during the Champions League clash with Chelsea after Portuguese fans started hurling objects towards Enzo Fernandes. Mourinho stepped in as drinks bottles rained down from the away section in the Shed End, pleading with his supporters to behave as they vented their fury at their former player, who left Benfica in controversial circumstances back in January 2023.
Chelsea looked to have stolen all three points over local rivals Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium, before a last-minute tap-in by Fabio Carvalho earned the Bees a 2-2 draw. The Blues had taken the lead thanks to second half goals by Cole Palmer and Moises Caicedo. The Blues had fallen behind to Kevin Schade's opener in the 29th minute.
Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez claimed that Cole Palmer and Ezno Fernandez are the two most important figures in the Blues dressing room. Enzo Maresca endured a satisfying maiden season at Stamford Bridge, where the club won the Europa Conference League title and then topped it with the triumph at the Club World Cup, where they dominated Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain in the final.
Chelsea's star midfielder Enzo Fernandez believes the Blues can win the Club World Cup by beating Paris Saint-Germain in the final. The Blues will start as underdogs against a PSG side who have won every trophy on offer in the 2024-25 campaign and have displayed fiery form in the Club World Cup thus far. Yet, the Argentine feels that they can upset the European champions.
Enzo Fernandez revealed he nearly fainted during Chelsea's Club World Cup clash with Fluminense due to "very dangerous" extreme heat. The match against Fluminense was played in the afternoon with temperatures soaring to 95°F (35°C), prompting officials to introduce cooling breaks during each half.
