Ruthless Chelsea Go Berserk In Record-Breaking Conference League Win Against Armenian Side FC Noah—-Enzo Maresca men record biggest win ever in UEFA Conference League, Chelsea put 6 past Armenian Fc Noah in the first 45 minutes of the encounter at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night, finally winning 8-nil to sit top of the Conference League log.

Enzo Maresca made plenty of changes for this one, utilising his famously massive squad and even handing a first senior start to 18-year-old Cobham graduate Tyrique George.

Chelsea simply blew Noah away in the early stages. Centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo got the first goal from a corner, his maiden goal for the club.

From kick-off, Noah lost the ball to Marc Guiu, who proceeded to double the lead with his first Chelsea goal.

Another corner five minutes later presented the third as Axel Disasi got his head to Enzo Fernandez’s delivery.

Having laid on the opener for Tosin as well, Fernandez completed his hat-trick of assists midway through the first half when he threaded a ball for Joao Felix to finish.

Mykhailo Mudryk took advantage of Chelsea’s clear superiority to get a confidence-boosting goal to his name, before Felix got his second courtesy of a deflection in the closing stages of the half.

Six goals to the good when the half-time whistle sounded.

Chelsea laid off the gas a little once the second half began, understandably so, although Maresca resisted any temptation of making sweeping changes and kept all but Fernandez on the pitch.

Christopher Nkunku had scored four in four Conference League games this season (including qualifiers) prior to kick-off and wasn’t about to miss out on the action.

He got Chelsea’s seventh midway through the second half by gobbling up his own rebound, before adding an eighth for good measure from the penalty spot.

Some fans online were immediately critical of the Frenchman for keeping penalty responsibilities and not affording Felix the chance for a hat-trick.

This was a Conference League record for the biggest winning margin in the competition’s short history, as well as Chelsea’s biggest win since beating Aston Villa 8-0 in December 2012.

PSG Set Up Arsenal Champions League Final

BREAKING: PSG Set Up Arsenal Champions League Final After 6-5 Aggregate Win Over Bayern Munich—-Reigning European champions Paris Saint-Germain have secured their place in yet another UEFA Champions League final after overcoming Bayern Munich in a fiercely contested semi-final clash.

Paris Saint-Germain have booked their place in the 2026 UEFA Champions League final after edging Bayern Munich 6-5 on aggregate in a dramatic semi-final clash.

The decisive moment came early in the second leg, when Ballon d’Or holder Ousmane Dembélé fired home from close range after being picked out by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, giving PSG a crucial lead that ultimately proved to be the winner.

Despite the fast start, the game soon became defined as much by controversy as by clear-cut chances. Bayern were left frustrated after Nuno Mendes appeared to handle the ball while already on a booking, but the referee opted against issuing a second yellow card.

Further anger followed when another potential handball incident involving João Neves went unpunished, with officials ruling that the ball had deflected off a teammate in the build-up—therefore not meeting the criteria for a penalty.

Bayern, managed by Vincent Kompany, dominated large periods of the match and created several opportunities. Michael Olise and Jamal Musiala both came close, while goalkeeper Matvéi Safonov was called into action multiple times.

The German side eventually found the net through Harry Kane in stoppage time, but it proved too little, too late as PSG held on to secure their place in the final.

The result extends Bayern’s wait for another European title to six years, while PSG now have the opportunity to win back-to-back Champions League trophies, just a year after claiming their first.

Attention now turns to the final on May 30, where PSG will face Arsenal. The showdown promises high stakes, with either a historic first Champions League title for Arsenal or consecutive triumphs for the French giants on the line.
