Chelsea Wins Europa Conference League Final 4-1 Over Real Betis

Chelsea secured a commanding 4-1 victory over Real Betis to win their first-ever UEFA Europa Conference League title, completing their collection of all five major UEFA trophies. Despite Betis taking an early lead through Abdessamad Ezzalzouli, Chelsea staged an impressive comeback in the second half with goals from Enzo Fernández, Nicolas Jackson, Jadon Sancho, and Moises Caicedo. Enzo Fernández played a key role, scoring the equalizer and driving the team forward, earning praise and drawing interest from Real Madrid, while Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca commended Betis midfielder Isco's quality despite the loss. Fans criticized Chelsea's Malo Gusto for his first-half errors, which contributed to Betis' opener, leading to his substitution at halftime. The victory also ended a long-standing streak of Spanish teams winning European finals, a feat highlighted by comparisons to Ashley Cole's famous quote about overcoming dominant teams. Ahead of the final, Betis captain Isco humorously acknowledged Chelsea's financial advantage but expressed confidence in his team's historic opportunity to win their first European trophy.
