Daily Mail  

As the celebrations spilled on to the pitch of the Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium late into the Arabian night, all the old faces were emerging. Chelsea are champions of the world after beating Palmeiras 2-1 in the Club World Cup final Blues boss Thomas Tuchel will know the club has several serious challenges ahead Captain Cesar Azpilicueta took the pressure off penalty taker Kai Havertz by pretending he was going to take the spot-kick himself The new kids had surpassed the old gang and become world champions by beating Palmeiras thanks to Kai Havertz's 117th-minute penalty, just as Cech had urged them to do during the week. 'It's amazing for the club to be on top of the world,' enthused Drogba, the Club World Cup coming after the Champions League in May and UEFA's Super Cup in August. 'That's exactly what they did, another Champions League and because they are competitors they remember we lost the one, the Club World Cup in 2012, so they knew how important this was for the club.' Andreas Christensen is one of several key defenders who are out of contract this summer Cesar Azpilicueta, now captain and who has completed a clean sweep of trophies at the club, was a new kid in 2012.
