Chelsea secured their place in the UEFA Conference League group stage despite a 2-1 defeat to Servette on Thursday. The Blues entered the second leg of the play-off with a 2-0 advantage and extended their aggregate lead early in the match when Christopher Nkunku converted a penalty.
However, Servette rallied with goals from Jeremy Guillemenot and Enzo Crivelli, but their efforts fell short as Chelsea advanced with a 3-2 aggregate score. The Premier League side is participating in the competition despite finishing sixth in the previous season.
