Chelsea triumphs 4-1 over Benfica despite prolonged weather delay
Caicedo to miss quarter-final due to yellow card
In a seemingly endless season, Chelsea’s 61st match had an equally lengthy conclusion. The team secured victory only after unpredictable American weather and meticulous VAR interventions pushed the game into extra-time at the Bank of America Stadium.
The match’s conclusion was extraordinary. A nearly two-hour delay ensued due to a thunderstorm, followed by a disputed equalizing penalty for Benfica, a red card, and an unexpected winning goal by Christopher Nkunku, advancing Chelsea to the last eight of the Club World Cup.
