Chelsea Close In On UEFA Conference League Final With Win At Djurgarden
Chelsea strolled to a comfortable 4-1 win at Djurgarden in the first leg of their UEFA Conference League semi-final on Thursday to all but book their spot in the final. In the other semi-final, Spain's Real Betis take a 2-1 lead into the return fixture against two-time runners-up Fiorentina. First-half goals from Jadon Sancho and Noni Madueke put Chelsea in control in Sweden, before Nicolas Jackson grabbed a brace midway through the second period. Enzo Maresca's side have one foot in the final of the Conference League in their debut campaign in the third-tier European competition.
