Luis Enrique hits Chelsea star and leaves him on floor as fight breaks out after Club World Cup Final

Chelsea's Club World Cup win ended with Paris Saint-Germain fury as Luis Enrique appeared to hit Joao Pedro. The Spaniard lashed out and caught the Blues' new signing in the face, leaving him on the floor.

Enrique was dragged away by PSG coaches, with Gianluigi Donnarumma also appearing to aggressively confront Chelsea's stars. Arguments raged with Pedro on the ground.

Donnarumma was angrily engaging with Pedro as his head coach reached around him and first connected with the Chelsea striker's throat. After failing to hang on, the ex-Barcelona boss lashed out a second time and caught Pedro again.

The 23-year-old was soon falling to the ground as more bodies entered the foray. The rivals engaged in tense conversations across the pitch as some were pulled apart and others greeted each other with stern words.

The explosion of anger seemed to be instigated as PSG star Achraf Hakimi looked to take issue with Pedro and Andrey Santos. The wing-back gestured that the duo talked to much with his hand.

The scenes followed a dominant win from Chelsea who defeated PSG 3-0. Enzo Maresca's side earned victory as Cole Palmer bagged a brace before Pedro got on the scoresheet before half-time.

The French side struggled to lay a glove on their west London opponents as they failed to build on their Champions League win. And temperatures boiled over when the final whistle went in the United States.

Enrique was also kept apart from Chelsea boss Maresca before the furious scenes diminished. But the actions will have done little to dispel Chelsea joy as they put their hands on a second trophy of the season having earlier won the Conference League.

"It's a great feeling," said Palmer following the match. "Even better because everyone doubted us before the game, we knew that. To put a fight on like we did, it's good."

Maresca was proud of the display his players prooduced. "I have no words for the players. They all deserve this and it's a good moment," he said.

"For me, we won the game in the first 10 minutes. We set the tempo and we were very good at pressing them. The conditions made it hard to keep going but the boys did well."
