However, this victory came at a cost for the team.
Chelsea striker Liam Delap will miss the upcoming match against Fluminense due to a yellow card he received during the game against Palmeiras.
Delap was booked for a foul on Palmeiras' midfielder Richard Rios, which is his second yellow card in the tournament.
Another Chelsea player, Levi Colwill, will also be suspended for the next match as he collected his second yellow card of the campaign.
