After a commanding 4-1 victory over Real Betis in Poland on Wednesday night, Chelsea added the UEFA Conference League to their European trophy cabinet, completing an unprecedented treble. The Blues, who have already lifted the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League in previous seasons, have now become the only club in football history to win all three of UEFA’s current major club competitions.
This historic feat marks a significant milestone in Chelsea’s European journey. Their Champions League triumphs in 2012 and 2021, along with Europa League titles in 2013 and 2019, were already landmark achievements. Now, by claiming the Conference League in its fourth edition, Chelsea have etched their name into the record books once again.
The final in Wrocław saw Chelsea come from behind after Abde Ezzalzouli gave Real Betis an early lead. But a stunning second-half turnaround—sparked by tactical changes from manager Enzo Maresca and inspired performances from substitutes like Reece James and Jadon Sancho—saw the Blues score four unanswered goals.
Cole Palmer was central to the comeback, providing two assists in a brilliant display that earned him Man of the Match. Goals from Enzo Fernández, Nicolas Jackson, Sancho, and Moisés Caicedo sealed the emphatic win and confirmed Chelsea’s place in next season’s UEFA Champions League.
For a club that has seen both domestic highs and transitional periods in recent years, this triumph underlines Chelsea’s enduring presence on the European stage. More than just silverware, this win symbolizes a new chapter under Maresca—one that blends youthful energy, tactical sharpness, and historic ambition.
