Group D: Flamengo 3-1 ChelseaBruno Henrique 62, Danilo 65, Wallace Yan 83; Neto 13After all the hype about Cole Palmer taking the No 10 shirt, it was hard to understand why Enzo Maresca seemed so determined to shackle his best player as Chelsea’s hopes of reaching the knockout phase of the Club World Cup as winners of Group D were dented by a second-half implosion in which Nicolas Jackson picked up a rash red card for the second time in his past four appearances.How Flamengo made light of the financial gap.
