In the semi-finals of the Club World Cup, Chelsea eliminated Fruminense and advanced to the finals. After the game, Charoba said that the team's goal at the beginning was to enter the finals.

Speaking of Cucurella's goal line clearance, Chaloba said: "This is the team's common goal. Don't concede the ball, try to keep a clean sheet. If everyone in the team is like this and has such a mental state, we can go further. Cucurella's clearance is very exciting, and the desire and fighting spirit we show are exactly what we need in such an event."

Speaking of Frumenense player Arias, Chaloba said: "We knew what Arias would be from the beginning. The kick, and what trouble he and the team will cause. As people say, offense wins games, but defense wins championships, so it’s important that we celebrate when we score goals and when we succeed in defense.”

Speaking of reaching the finals, Chaloba said: “It feels great, our goal in the beginning was to reach the finals, and now we have done it. We won’t stop there, we will be ready and focus on the next game, but it feels really great to be able to advance.”
