Peter Rufai won the 1994 African Cup of Nations with the Super Eagles and played at the 1994 and 1998 World Cup.

Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca said Pedro Neto is grieving the death of his close friend and Portugal teammate Diogo Jota, and the decision to play in Friday's Club World Cup quarterfinal against Palmeiras is his own.

Mitja Ilenic extends NYCFC's lead in the 49th minute.
