A Brazilian icon is turning back the clock in Fluminense's charmed Club World Cup campaign, and now has a reunion with Chelsea ahead

Fluminense are the first club to book their spot in the semi-finals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. On Friday night, the Brazilians outclassed Al Hilal (2-1), clinching victory thanks to a decisive goal from Hércules.

Fluminense's coach said before Friday's Club World Cup quarterfinal that 'soccer is decided on the pitch,' not via bank balance. Then they defeated superrich Al Hilal to cruise into the final four.
