Before halftime, Palmer set up new signing Joao Pedro for Chelsea’s third goal, giving the Premier League side a commanding lead. In the second half, Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez made two key saves to secure the clean sheet, while PSG, despite their attacking reputation, struggled to break through the Blues’ strong defense.
