Joao Pedro: One of the reasons why Chelsea won the Club World Cup is that there are many South American players
João Pedro joined Chelsea for 11 days to help the team win the Club World Cup championship. The player scored 3 goals in 2 starts in 3 games.
The player was interviewed by Brazilian media Sportsv after the final and said when talking about the reasons for the team's victory: "We know that everyone thinks that Paris will win the game, especially after they defeated Real Madrid. But this is how football is. No one can determine the outcome before the game begins. This gives us extra motivation. In such a game, we need passion, which I think is what English players lack. This passion has been cultivated since childhood. It comes from the grassroots level. I believe that one of the reasons why we win is that there are many South American players on the court."
