Victory 1-0 at Stamford Bridge against the Djurgarden with Dewsbury-Hall goals. Match for the Cup on May 28 in Breslavia against Betis
Mission accomplished: Chelsea is in the Conference League final, that cup in which it is strapated and that will be played against Betis Siviglia on May 28 in Breslavia, Poland. The return to Stamford Bridge with the Swedes of the Djurgarden, accompanied to London by almost 5,000 very warm fans, was little more than a formality after the 4-1 of the first leg in Stockholm, but Maresca had asked his to avoid fools such as the one with the Legia Warsaw in the return of the quarterfinals (Ko 2-1 after the 3-0 of the first leg and whistles of the public) and the Chelsea this time he listened to his coach, Checking the game and closing with Kiernan Dewwbury-Hall’s 1-0 at 38 ‘. Nothing extraordinary, but still a victory that allows Chelsea to focus on the sprint that leads to the Champions League from the Premier: this cup that cannot fail to win will return to the radar after the end of the championship.
The keys to the semifinal

Also in version B Chelsea is clearly superior to the Djurgarden, to the first European trip to England in its history. That mission to do, Maresca entrusted it to young people like Reggie Walsh, at 16 years and 200 days the youngest owner in Europe in the history of the blues, and like the two 19 -year -olds Josh Acchenamong and Tyrique George, who invented the assist for the victory goal. The game also allowed experiments, such as Marc Cucurella median next to Reece James and malo more right -wing taste than they canfire. It worked well both because, apart from experiments, Chelsea is now fully master of the Maresca style, and for the littleness of the opponent. Although team B is the one that brought to the final with a triumphal ride with 42 goals scored and 10 conceded, with 11 successes in 12 games (the only exception is the return with Legia Warsaw), it is likely that the victory of the Maresca Cup will ask her owners. At Djurgarden the party remains, the first European semifinal of its history, the warmth of the fans who animated a challenge at Stamford Bridge otherwise meaningless. Squadrons like Chelsea remain out of reach, even if they use reserves.
Chelsea’s match

Chelsea immediately checks the game, but to go on it has to wait for the 38 ‘, when a splendid idea of George allows Dewsbury-Hall to slip between the two djurgarden plants and beat around with a billiard coup. Maresca starts again with the 17 -year -old Mhueka instead of Cucurella, one of the very owner to be preserved for the championship: the blues remain in control of the game, the Djurgarden is more enterprising, the blues have other occasions but the result no longer changes. And Chelsea on May 28 will be played his first European final from 2021. With the obligation to win it.
