The plot of the Club World Cup! Chelsea scored 3 goals in overtime and defeated Benfica, and the coach celebrated wildly on the sidelines

On June 29, the Club World Cup knockout round 1/8 final ushered in a strong dialogue, with Chelsea fighting with Benfica. Chelsea had an absolute advantage in the first half, but neither team could score. After the change of sides, James scored directly with a free kick in the world. The game was interrupted for two hours, and Di Maria scored a goal and dragged the game into overtime. In overtime, Chelsea scored 3 goals in a row, and finally defeated Benfica 4-1 and advanced to the quarter-finals. Chelsea will play against Barcelona giants Palmeiras in the quarter-finals.

Benfica is the first in Group C, beating the Bundesliga overlord Bayern. They defeated Bayern 1-0 in the last round of the group stage, breaking the curse of not winning against Bayern. As a giant in Portuguese Super League, Benfica is very strong. Chelsea ranked first in Group D and lost to Flamengo 1-3 in the group stage. However, new players Drapp, Enzo and others have performed well.

In this game, both teams played the strongest lineup. In Chelsea, Drapp served as the single arrow, and famous players such as Enzo, Neto, Palmer, and Kesedo also started, with Nkunku, Adarabioyu, Hall and other players on the bench. In Benfica, 37-year-old Di Maria and Otamendi are both former famous players.

Chelsea took the lead after the opening, controlled the rhythm of the game, and continued to put pressure on the opponent's goal. Benfica could only be exhausted from defense and was completely suppressed by Chelsea, making it difficult to form an effective offense. Chelsea's offensive was fierce, and Palmer and Cucurella were both very close to scoring.

Benfica goalkeeper Trubin became the busiest person in the first half. Chelsea shot 7 times and 5 times aimed at the half. Trubin made many magical punches to ensure the goal was not lost. It is worth mentioning that in the last game against Bayern, Trubin made a divine save to the Lord many times. The two teams drew 0-0 at halftime.

After the change of sides, Chelsea still has the advantage, but Benfica's offensive improved slightly compared to the first half, creating a good shooting opportunity for a while. In the 63rd minute, Enzo's pass caused the opponent's yellow card, Chelsea got a free kick opportunity, James took the penalty and scored directly, and Chelsea broke the deadlock.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the 87th minute of the game suddenly occurred. The game was forced to be interrupted due to lightning. The game started again after about 2 hours. In stoppage time, Gusto gave a handball and Di Maria scored a penalty kick in one go. The passive Benfica equalized the score and dragged the game into overtime. In overtime, Prestiani was sent off with a total of two yellows, and Benfica played 10 players, and the game was unexpected again. In the 108th minute of the second half of the overtime game, Chelsea created a dangerous situation, Nkunku scored a goal in chaos, and Chelsea took the lead again. In the 114th minute, Neto scored and locked in the victory. Hall then scored another goal, completely killing the suspense of the game.

The whole game ended, Chelsea defeated Benfica 4-1 and reached the quarterfinals with his head held high, continuing the team's record of winning against Benfica, who unfortunately missed the quarterfinals. Chelsea will face Palmeiras in the semi-finals, who eliminated Bottafogo 1-0.
