Best Answer

The sea battle of Salamis defeated the Persian fleet which had to withdraw back to Asia Minor, leaving the Persian army unsupported and without its supply fleet, so half of the army had to go home. This left the reduced Persian army open to defeat at Plataia the following year and the invasion was defeated.
