Chelsea started the game rather miserably, but soon, they were the ones who were really, really comfortable and had the whole situation under control. They scored a comfortable goal and did not let Djurgarden even get close to worry them. This gave them a 5-1 overall win and a place in the final of the UEFA Europa Conference League.
They totally outclassed Djurgarden who barely got any good shots off or even near their goal, while Chelsea had an equal share of position in the first half and risked very little. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall finally made the breakthrough in the match by shooting the ball from the outside of the post when Jacob Rinne had earlier saved that same ball on the line from him.
One win in the last four matches for Djurgarden was not good enough for them to be in their best form. They struggled to create opportunities, as their performance was affected by an own goal from Keita Kosugi, and the last two chances, still, could not be converted by Gulliksen and Stensson past Jorgensen. The kingpins of European football are still showing their muscle in the tournament and have reached the final which is to be played in Wroclaw. Real Betis will be the opponents of Chelsea on that day.
Meanwhile, The Blues are still moving ahead to the top 4 position with a good run and they have a chance of winning the UCL qualifications. The defeat was sad for Djurgarden, but they went out following a highly exciting and successful European journey, yet now their goal is to cut the distance with 9 points between them and the table’s top team in the Swedish league Allsvenskan.
