Spanish ahead in the 9th minute, but Maresca’s team draws at 65 ‘with Enzo Fernandez and then ramps with Jackson, Sancho and Caicedo. The English club, with this success, becomes the only club in the world to have won all the European trophies
For Enzo Maresca, the flag of Seville, there was the air of derby and the Italian technician brought him home with merit and style: his Chelsea beat the Betis 4-1 by winning the Conference League in Breslavia, Poland. The Stamford Bridge club becomes the first to conquer the three European competitions of the modern era. For Maresca a great season since on Saturday brought Chelsea to fourth place in the Premier.
End of the strip
–
For the Betis first European final Amara who closes an incredible strip of the Liga teams: the Spanish clubs had imposed themselves in the last 19 European finals played, from the defeat of Valencia with Bayern to penalties at San Siro in Champions League in 2001. Nine of the final ones had been won against teams of the Premier League.
Super favorite
–
Chelsea was the great favorite at the beginning of the competition and had closed the group first, with Betis 15th and the playoffs. The Spaniards gave everything, rapidly took the lead but in the second half they were overwhelmed by the genius of Cole Palmer, author of two assists, and by the goals of Enzo Fernandez, Nico Jackson, Sancho and Caicedo. For Maresca a triumph against her mentor: the Chilean engineer Manuel Pellegrini who yesterday at 71 years old and 231 days became the oldest technician in a European final, had had it at Malaga as a player and at West Ham as a collaborator.
Betis advantage
–
Electrical departure with very high pressure of the two teams and Betis in the lead in the 9th minute: the bad bad taste loses the ball out, isco with the rear view of Abde who rushes left, perfect control and diagonal that beats Jorgensen. For the Moroccan ex Barça Quarto Sesto goal in this Europa League, he has made 9 in the whole season.
Two occasions
–
And a moment later Bartra, served by Bakambu, with a shot for a spectacular flight for a spectacular flight. Chelsea holds the ball but risks again at 20 ‘when an Abde percussion offers a golden occasion to Johnny Cardoso that the American wastes badly. Chelsea cannot scratch the Spanish defense, and the only shot before the break, very busted, arrives at 35 ‘by Pedro Neto.
Change only
–
In the interval outside Malo Gusto, tortured by Abde, inside Reece James, and on the other side the former Turin captain, Ricardo Rodriguez, replaced by Perraud. Shortly after the excellent Abde, a bruised, gives way to the 19 -year -old Canterano Jesus Rodriguez. Then Sancho for Neto and Colwill for Badiashile. We point out the changes because those of the Londonas are fundamental and because there is much more to tell: Chelsea engaged in a confused siege, Betis at ease in defense.
One-two
–
This until 65 ‘. That is the minute in which Cole Palmer climbed in the chair and in 5 minutes served Enzo Fernandez and Nico Jackson the goals that shot the race: two cross with his left -handed from the right with Bartra and Natan passed and the comeback completed. Betis is in apnea and is pardoned by Jackson who launched alone behind the Spanish defense goes on the run only to embarkly deliver the ball to the opposing goalkeeper. And it is also hurt.
Meat
–
Jadon Sancho, who entered the harmless Pedro Neto and author of 3-1 to 82 ‘. To give him the ball the young Dewsbury-Hall. In recovery the Caicedo network, served by Enzo Fernandez, for the severe 4-1 final. The blues celebrate a triumph in a minor cup that have honored throughout the season. Enzo Maresca after the promotion with the Leeds last year closes his first season at Stamford Bridge.
