    A unique situation for the player who's fired Chelsea into the final of football's Club World Cup


    Joao Pedro's scored both goals in a 2-nil semifinal victory in New York over Fluminense in New York.

    The now 23-year-old striker joined the Brazilian club's academy at age 10 - spending nine years in the youth system before making his first-team debut in 2019.

    Pedro sums up his emotions after knocking out his former team.



    Tomorrow's second semifinal features Paris Saint Germain and Real Madrid.
