Group D composed of Chelsea, Tunisia Hope, Flamenco and Los Angeles FC is full of highlights. Giroud, who has switched to Los Angeles FC, is expected to play against his old boss. Wu Xiaohai, who once became the naturalization target of the national football team, also has the opportunity to make a debut.
Team introduction: Chelsea has fought against three strong enemies
This season, Chelsea has returned to the right track, not only winning the European League championship, but also successfully returning to the top 4 in the Premier League. Chelsea, coached by Maresca, has several young players, and the team won 6 games in 7 games in May, showing excellent form.
Flamengo, currently ranked third in the Brazilian League, is in good shape. It is worth noting that the coach of the team is Chelsea’s former player Philippe. Founded in 2014, Los Angeles FC won the 2022 FA Championship. They did not originally win the Club World Cup quota, but because Leon was disqualified, Los Angeles FC became the last team to advance to the Club World Cup after winning the play-off against Mexico America.
Tunisia hopes to be the winner of the Tunisian League One this season. This team has a history of 106 years, has dozens of championship trophies in the domestic Tunisian arena, and has also topped the African Champions League three times.
Schedule: Giroud’s first match to confront the old master
At 3 a.m. on June 17, Chelsea’s game against Los Angeles FC will become a reunion between Giroud and his old club. Flamenco’s match against Tunisia will be held at 9 a.m. that day. The specific schedule of Group D is as follows.
June 17 03:00 Chelsea vs. Los Angeles

Quit situation: The Blues are expected to advance to the top
Among the teams in this group, Chelsea is undoubtedly the most optimistic team in the qualifying situation. However, the relatively young lineup has brought them hidden dangers. The schedule of each game in 4 days is a very test of coach Maresca’s arrangement. Los Angeles FC and Flamenco both have many experienced veterans. The two teams are not only capable of competing for promotion places, but are also likely to pose a threat to Chelsea. Tunisia hopes to be ahead in the domestic league, but when they come to the Club World Cup, there is a certain gap. If you want to make achievements, the team needs to do its best to defend.
Star player: There are many stories of reunion between old friends
In this Club World Cup, Los Angeles FC forward core Giroud and Flamengo coach Philippe will reunite with his old club Chelsea. There are also many famous players in the teams they play for. Former French national goalkeeper Lori and Turkey international Yundale are both important players in Los Angeles FC. The strength of Flamenco, led by Danilo and Sandro, is obvious on the wing. Jorginho, who has played for Chelsea for many years, is also qualified to represent Flamengo in the Club World Cup.
In the protagonist Chelsea team, Palmer, who scored double-digit goals in Premier League for two consecutive seasons, will play an important role, and Enzo will also play an important role in the midfield. Tunisia hopes scorer Bereli has played in Ligue 1, and the Algerian international will take on the offensive responsibility in the Club World Cup.
