BEACH FOR THE STARS

Chelsea taking a relaxed approach to beating PSG and conquering the world

- FROM JOHN CROSS Chief Football Writer in New York

ENZO MARESCA has been trying to keep his players' minds off the Club World Cup.

And no wonder...because Chelsea have to take on all-conquering Paris Saint-Germain in the £97million final at MetLife Stadium here on Sunday.

PSG are French champions and European champions and are now bidding to add the world crown to their trophy collection under manager Luis Enrique this season.

But Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo revealed that they have used the past month in the United States to do some serious bonding.

Chelsea have been playing table tennis and cards and were allowed to go to the beach at their Miami training base. The relaxed attitude has been designed to allow the players to recharge after a marathon season and it has taken some pressure off their weary shoulders.
