What Cole Palmer is doing on the field! This is unbelievable! Two goals and one assist. I thought 1.78 on PSG before the match was a good odds, but now PSG is probably 20 at least.
It's like watching the Europa conference final, only instead of Betis we have PSG and it seems like they are teams from different leagues.
Before the start of the match I think no one could imagine that the score will be 3:0 in the first half in favor of PSG.

This is a season long waited performance from Cole Palmer and Chelsea, these guys are making the those who must have taken bets against Chelsea wish they have not. The defensive weakness of opposition has always been what PSG exploited with other teams and Chelsea have reinforced that real good in this finale. The defense is good, they keep PSG players closely marked and not letting any runs behind the defense line. They keep are high line but even then are very watchful and Sanchez isn’t letting any free chances tonight, distance punches and holding the balls that falls close to him tight. Chelsea seems to have got this game figured out.

First half Chelsea 3:0 PSG now that’s some pay back for what PSG has been dishing out.

Palmer probably deserved the golden ball with his play in the 23/24 season when he almost single-handedly led Chelsea to 6th place in the EPL and now Palmer is in great form and it doesn't seem like Dembele deserves the golden ball more than Palmer.
Maresca has done a great job with the team and you can see how Chelsea are improving with every game, plus Maresca was able to get rid of Madueke and bought a good Joao Pedro.
In general, next season in the EPL Chelsea will be one of the favorites.
