Champions Chelsea Clinch European Trophy Triumph
FC Chelsea has made history in the world of football by securing a 4-1 victory over Real Betis Sevilla in the Conference League final. This triumph marks the first time a club has won all major European club competitions.
The finale, held at Stadion Wrocław in Poland on May 29, 2025, saw Chelsea overcoming a 1-0 deficit, courtesy of goals from Enzo Fernández (65'), Nicolas Jackson (70'), Jadon Sancho (83'), and Moisés Caicedo (90.+1). The English Premier League club's triumph follows victories in the Champions League (2012 and 2021), Europa League (2013 and 2019), the European Cup Winners' Cup (1971 and 1998), and the UEFA Super Cup (1998 and 2021) [1][2][3].
Sevilla started the match strongly, taking an early lead through Abde Ezzalzouli in the 9th minute. Despite this, Sevilla remained the better team for much of the first half, with Chelsea struggling offensively. However, the momentum shifted after half-time, and Chelsea turned the match around to secure the victory.
The match in Poland marked the end of an impressive run for Spanish football. Since the 2001/02 season, a final involving a Spanish team in the Champions League, Europa League, or Conference League had consistently resulted in a Spanish victory. This streak ended with Sevilla's loss [4].
Before the match, riots took place in Wrocław's streets. The police deployed stun grenades and water cannons to quell unrest among English and Spanish fans on the city's market square. Over 20 individuals were arrested, and isolated incidents of violence occurred on Tuesday [5].
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk condemned the violence, praising the police for their prompt action against the hooligans. He issued a warning for harsher police action if necessary [6].
In the aftermath of the historic Conference League final victory, FC Chelsea has now consolidated its status as a dominating force in European football, having completed a clean sweep in all major European club competitions, including the Premier League. This triumph over Real Betis Sevilla further solidifies Chelsea's legacy in sports, particularly within the realm of European leagues and the Premier League.
