FILIP JORGENSON pranked Chelsea team-mate Trevoh Chalobah after the Blues beat Bayer Leverkusen.
Chelsea earned a 2-0 victory over the German outfit to win the VisitMalta Weekender Cup.
Estevao netted his first goal in Chelsea colours before Joao Pedro wrapped up the result late on.
Enzo Maresca’s players lifted the trophy in a ceremony after the game but were not overly enthused during their celebrations.
The players took turns lifting the pre-season trophy until Malo Gusto handed it to Chalobah.
The defender gave the cup a half-hearted lift before Jorgenson decided to prank him.
The goalkeeper gestured that he wanted his go with the silverware and Chalobah went to give it to him.
However, the Dane was not being serious and instead walked away, leaving Chalobah hanging.
The defender was then left with the trophy and was unable to offload it to the likes of Liam Delap and Cole Palmer.
He eventually got shot of the cup as wonderkid Estavao took it off his hands and lifted it to the crowd with a big smile on his face.

Palmer was next to him when he lifted the cup and enjoyed watching the young brazilian enjoy the moment.
Meanwhile, after the match manager Maresca hinted that the Blues are not finished in the transfer market.
The Blues have been heavily tipped to sign Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho.
The club could also dip into the market for a new centre back following the ACL injury to Levi Colwill.
Maresca said: “It’s a priority for me to get a new centre back.
“We will see if we go for it.
“Levi is a fantastic player. What we achieved last season is because of him.
“He played a lot of games with me, I love him. We are going to miss him.
“We are trying also to find different solutions.”
The club could also see Nicolas Jackson leave before the window shuts.
The striker is training alone and was left out of the squad for the match against Leverkusen.
He has been linked with moves to both Newcastle and Bayern Munich.
