He who laughs last... laughs best - Chelsea responds to Flamengo's taunt three weeks later

They say he who laughs last laughs best. In this case, Chelsea had the last laugh after making it to the final of the FIFA Club World Cup.

Chelsea became the first finalist in the tournament, while Flamengo was eliminated in the round of 16 after losing 4-2 to Bayern.

Almost three weeks after their defeat to Flamengo, the Blues responded to the Brazilian club's taunts after securing a spot in the Club World Cup final.

On June 20th, Flamengo got the better of Chelsea in their Group D match, defeating the Blues 3-1.

After the final whistle, Flamengo's social media team posted a provocative message aimed at the English side: "Where did the Chelsea fans go?" they asked, highlighting the massive presence of their own supporters compared to the British contingent.

Now, Chelsea has delivered their reply. After beating Flamengo's city rivals, Fluminense, 2-0 in the semi-final, Chelsea responded to the earlier jibe, as reported by Abola, "They're on their way to New York for the Club World Cup final."

The Blues will face Paris Saint-Germain in the final of the Club World Cup as they aim to become the first team to win the new-look tournament.
