Chelsea wins Conference League final 4-1 over Real Betis

Cole Palmer was named Player of the Match after providing two assists in Chelsea's 4–1 comeback win over Real Betis in the Conference League final, helping Chelsea become the first club to win the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League. When asked why he tucked his award into his shorts during the post-match interview, Palmer humorously replied, "I've got no pockets," which amused CBS host Anita Nneka Jones and fans alike. Despite some inconsistent performances this season, Palmer stepped up in the knockout rounds and the final, earning praise from former Chelsea star Joe Cole, who called him an "absolute genius". Palmer's blunt and deadpan interview style after the match also delighted fans, as he gave succinct answers and deflected some questions. Chelsea's victory not only secured the trophy but also guaranteed Champions League qualification for next season, marking a successful campaign for the team and Palmer. The young midfielder's performance and attitude have made him a standout player, with hopes that this momentum will continue going forward.
