The statistics and records carved by Real Betis instantly collapsed in front of a team with a fighting spirit and steely mentality, Chelsea again showed its dominance in European competition after making an Epic Comeback in the second half. Chelsea managed to take advantage of all the advantages they had by maintaining focus until the end of the match, Enzo Maresca also fielded the best full squad after rotating several positions throughout the group phase until the semifinals.
Real Betis had to admit Chelsea's prowess regardless of the tactics used in the second half, the defeat started from their failure to maintain the rhythm of the game which allowed Chelsea to control the game.
Since the beginning, Chelsea was indeed more favored than Real Betis. I even predicted Chelsea would be the champion when the competition entered the semifinal round. Real Betis played very well this season with the Goat and Isco but I predicted the final match would be Chelsea vs Fiorentina. Chelsea going to the final and becoming champions is something that everyone can easily predict. But Real Betis fighting against a more favored team is something extraordinary. I congratulate Chelsea who have become the first European team to win all European competitions. And I also appreciate Real Betis' struggle to reach their first European final.
