Chelsea stormed back to defeat Real Betis 4-1 in the UEFA Conference League final in Wroclaw on Wednesday, becoming the first team to win all four major European titles.
Manuel Pellegrini’s enterprising Betis surprised the favourites in Poland with an early goal from Abde Ezzalzouli, but Enzo Maresca’s players were a different story in the second half.
Substitute Jadon Sancho made the game safe in the 83rd minute, finishing from an tight angle and Moises Caicedo added gloss to the scoreline.
It means Chelsea become the first club to win the full set of Champions League, Europa League, Conference League and the now-defunct Cup Winners’ Cup.
It is also the first silverware for the club since Todd Boehly’s consortium took over from former owner Roman Abramovich in 2022, following an era of unprecedented success for the club.
