WATCH: Scuffle breaks out at end of Club World Cup final as Luis Enrique, Donnarumma confront Joao Pedro
A scuffle broke out after the end of the Club World Cup final on Sunday, with Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique and goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma appearing to push Chelsea forward João Pedro. Chelsea upset PSG 3-0 to win the title, scoring three first-half goals in a match that turned testy with a red card to PSG's João Neves for pulling down Marc Cucurella by his hair, along with six yellow cards. ¡SE INCENDIARON LOS ÁNIMOS! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 LUIS ENRIQUE SE FUE DIRECTO A POR JOAO PEDRO Y SE ARMÓ LA MUNDIAL 😱@FIFACWC | La final, gratis en | #FIFACWC# — DAZN Fútbol (@DAZNFutbol) July 13, 2025 Enrique was on the field near the centre circle and appeared to push Pedro on the throat. Donnarumma shoved the 23-year-old forward, who fell over. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca moved away Donnarumma, a fellow Italian. 'This was completely avoidable at the end,' Enrique said through a translator. 'My goal and my objective, as always, is to separate the footballers to avoid greater problems. There is a lot of tension, a lot of pressure, and there was a whole bunch of pushing that was going on by many people.' PSG defender Achraf Hakimi had been gesturing at Pedro and Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos. 'I saw players surrounding him,' Pedro said of Santos. 'Like a good Brazilian, I went to protect a friend. A lot of people were there, and it ended up with me getting pushed. These things happen. They don't know how to lose. Now it's time to celebrate.' Maresca said he wasn't aware of how the fracas started. 'I saw that something was going on, but I don't know what happened,' he said.

What is the new 8-second rule for goalkeepers? In a move to prevent time wasting, the International Football Association Board (IFAB) announced a new rule which would see goalkeepers who hold onto the ball for longer than eight seconds concede a corner. On-field referees will be aided in their decision-making by a visual five-second countdown. What was the previous law? Law 12.2 states that a goalkeeper has six seconds to release the ball before the opposing team is awarded an indirect free-kick but this has now been amended and the change will come into force next season. The new rule is said to implemented worldwide from July 1 onwards but the same is being applied to the revamped FIFA Club World Cup being held in the United States of America.
