It is without big surprise that the final of the league conference offered a much better show than the 100% English outcome of the Europa League between Tottenham and Manchester United (1-0). A second English club wins a European Cup this season: Chelsea, led by Real Betis at halftime, overthrew the Conference League final, winning 4-1. To enter the history of the European Cups!

Chelsea already had six main continental trophies, with two Champions League (2012, 2021), two Cups Cups (1971, 1998) and two Europa League (2013, 2019). The blues therefore win the League conference and become the first club in history to offer this “quadruple crown”. A hell of a record for a club that has not been a champion of England “only” six times in history.

Real Betis nevertheless believed it for a long time before being caught up in the offensive force of the Londoners. Isco, the magnificent playmaker of Andalusian training, found Abdessamad Ezzalzouli of a blind pass and the Moroccan international opened the scoring in the 9th minute. The men of the “engineer” Manuel Pellegrini first easily contained those of Enzo Maresca. 1-0 at halftime.

Cole Palmer Porte Chelsea

A fault on the goal of the Beticos with a bad recovery (while he played a right side in the defensive/axial midfielder in the offensive phase), Malo Gusto, just recalled in the French team, took the door from half time. Reece James has taken his place and the same hybrid role.

It was finally Cole Palmer, so disappointing this season, which allowed Chelsea to overthrow this C4 final. The English crack made the centers for the two goals blowing in the blow signed Enzo Fernandez (65th) and Nicolas Jackson (70th). Chelsea did not tremble at the end of the match since Jadon Sancho, who came into play, made the break for his team (84th) and Moises Caicedo also made the nets tremble (91st).
