Chelsea comfortably sailed through to this season’s Conference League final on Thursday night, completing the job against Djurgarden in the second leg of their semi-final tie.

Enzo Maresca’s side already led 4-1 from the first leg in Stockholm as they welcomed the Swedes to Stamford Bridge. It allowed the Blues, who have usually rotated in this competition anyway, to rest even more players given that a fight for the Premier League top five remains on.

16-year-old midfielder Reggie Walsh became the club’s youngest ever European starter, while Tyrique George and Josh Acheampong retained their places in the lineup from last week’s game.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall scored the only goal of the night, adding more daylight to a a 5-1 aggregate score-line overall, with a Djurgarden side severely limited in numbers had no response.

It’s Real Betis next up for Chelsea in the final in Warsaw on 28 May, after the Spanish side edged the other semi-final against two-time runners-up Fiorentina in extra-time.
