PSG could have closed the season with even 5 trophies but they failed in the FIFA Club World Cup. In the end this tournament was kind of a part of the previous season. Who could have thought Chelsea would be the one to stop them?  Grin

I see some weakness in them against Premier League teams. Eliminating Liverpool and Aston Villa both were also not an easy work for them in the Champions League you know. I wonder whether Luis Enrique will find a solution for those teams too next season...

Luckily, Chelsea didn't play in the Champions League last season, as they were only playing in the UEFA Europa Conference League, the third tier of European football. If Chelsea had played in the Champions League that season, PSG might have failed to win the trophy again. However, this season, Chelsea is back in the Champions League, so to defend their Champions League title, PSG must be more cautious when they face Chelsea again.

And returning to the FIFA Club World Cup final, PSG's defeat was completely unpredictable, as Chelsea were not a favorite for the trophy, especially since PSG was at the peak of their powers. PSG had managed to defeat the Premier League's top clubs three times in a row in the same season and competition. However, the unexpected outcome was that PSG were also defeated by an English club.
