Levi Colwill’s 50th-minute goal secured Chelsea a crucial 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest, clinching their spot in next season’s Champions League.
The victory at the City Ground sees Enzo Maresca’s side finish fourth in the Premier League.
Despite the defeat, Nottingham Forest’s impressive season concluded with qualification for the UEFA Conference League, marking their return to European competition for the first time since 1996.
The tightly contested match saw Colwill score the decisive goal from close range, assisted by Pedro Neto. Chelsea now turn their attention to Wednesday’s Conference League final against Real Betis.
For Forest, while missing out on the Champions League was disappointing, their seventh-place finish is a significant achievement after battling relegation last season.
