- 切爾西 star attended Les Parisiens’ semi-final victory
- Palmer: PSG ‘probably best team in the world’
- Final kicks off on Sunday night
Palmer was speaking with DAZN ahead of Sunday’s final. The Chelsea star shared that he attended PSG’s 4-0 semi-final win against 皇家馬德里, and that the 冠軍聯賽 winners are “probably the best team in the world.” However, he also said he and his teammates are “confident” and that they “have a plan”.
Les Parisiens have looked every bit the favourites through the revamped tournament, beating 國際米蘭 Miami, 拜仁慕尼黑 and Real Madrid en route to the final, with an aggregate score of 10-0 over those three ties. Chelsea have had a slightly easier path to the showpiece event, beating 本菲卡, Palmeiras 和 Fluminense.
Palmer said: “Obviously, we’re confident. We know it’s going to be a tough game, but it’s a final.
“We’re excited. Everyone’s ready. You know, you want to play against the best team, and they probably are the best team in the world, but we’re excited and we’re ready.
“They do everything well, we’ve watched the games, but we’ve got a plan and we’re going to try and do it.”
As Chelsea’s most dependable goalscorer, playmaker and all-round talisman, Palmer will need to be at his very best if The Blues are to cause an upset in New Jersey.
