Victory at Abu Dhabi’s Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium saw Chelsea clinch the one trophy that had evaded them in the Roman Abramovich era.
And it sparked jubilant scenes among their stars on the field and those who were still in the treatment room.
England’s flying full-backs Reece James and Ben Chilwell have been long-term absentees for boss Thomas Tuchel.
But they were able to join the squad in the Middle East to cheer on their mates.
And the pair were among the chief cheerleaders in the changing room once the trophy was secured.
Chilwell posted a photo on Instagram with goalscorer Havertz with the admiring caption ‘King Kai’.

James managed to get his hands on the trophy as he shared a happy snap of his own.
And the duo beamed with delight as they were awarded their own medals - having starred in Chelsea’s Champions League triumph last summer.
Havertz and Mason Mount might not be thanking Chilwell for some of his behind-the-scenes footage though.
The youngsters grinned as they showed off some questionable dancing on Chilwell’s Instagram account.
The party atmosphere wasn’t just limited to the players.
Billionaire owner Abramovich was caught on camera celebrating Havertz’s penalty - although he kept his revelry to a simple round of applause.
