The perfect ending for The Blues

The final match that took place in the early morning of May 29 between Real Betis and Chelsea was the third time in history that the two teams have met. 20 years ago, they met in the group stage of the 2005-06 Champions League, when Betis won 1-0 in the first leg and lost 0-4 in the second leg. In previous seasons, Betis was a "middle-class" team, often having to compete for relegation in Liga. However, this season Betis has completely transformed, especially since borrowing Antony from Man United in January this year. With Antony's explosive form, Pellegrino's team has flourished in both domestic and European competitions. In La Liga, Betis finished in 6th place, winning a ticket to the Europa League next season. In Europe, they reached the Conference League final. For Betis, this final is an opportunity for them to win a European tournament for the first time. On the journey to Wroclaw, the biggest challenge that Manuel Pellegrini and his team overcame was Fiorentina in the semi-finals. However, coming to the final, facing a bigger challenge in Chelsea, Betis tried their best but could not prevent The Blues from winning the title.

For Chelsea, The Blues have the stature of a giant team with a record of surpassing their opponents in European cups. The team at Stamford Bridge has won the Champions League, Europa League and European Super Cup. Since taking over Chelsea from Pochettino, coach Maresca has breathed life into Chelsea with an attractive attacking style of play. Although they have not been able to compete for the Premier League title, The Blues have always been a "fearsome" opponent for any opponent. Chelsea are especially "tough" in decisive matches. With 3 championship trophies in 4 European cups, the Conference League is the only cup they lack. More than ever, coach Enzo Maresca and his team understand that with a victory over Real Betis in the final in Wroclaw, Chelsea will go down in history as the first team to win all 4 European tournaments, so The Blues are determined to make history. With great determination and great courage in the decisive matches, Maresca's team took advantage of the decisive moments to win the final match and be crowned.

Returning to the match, the two teams entered the match with completely opposite spirit. No one expected the "superior" team Chelsea to play disjointedly, lack cohesion and be completely outclassed by Real Betis in the first 45 minutes. Meanwhile, Betis entered the match confidently and quickly broke through Chelsea's net in the 9th minute. Taking advantage of Gusto's mistake, Isco sent a delicate pass to Ezzalzouli in a comfortable position without being marked by anyone. The Moroccan player calmly controlled the ball for a moment before unleashing a low, tricky shot, giving goalkeeper Jorgensen no chance to block. However, only one goal was scored in the first half. Betis had a 1-goal advantage after the end of the first half.

In the second half, Chelsea played a completely different game. Real Betis could not resist the "wrath" of The Blues. Enzo Fernandez, Nicolas Jackson, Jadon Sancho and Moises Caicedo scored one after another, helping Chelsea win a resounding 4-1 victory to win the championship.

Chelsea made history by becoming the first team to win all four major European competitions in a single season by beating Real Betis in the Conference League final. Coupled with qualification for the Champions League after beating Nottingham Forest in the final round of the Premier League, the Conference League title was a fitting end to a difficult season for Chelsea and Enzo Maresca.
