Mourinho: 'I'm super happy' ahead of Europa League final

Sevilla are the Europa League champions. It’s a familiar phrase as the Spanish side lifted the trophy for a record-extending seventh time after defeating Roma via a penalty shootout in Budapest.

The champions were second best in the first half. They started slow and sluggish as Roma dictated the tempo of the game. Jose Mourinho risked starting Paulo Dybala up front for the Serie A team and was rewarded with the opening goal as Dybala slotted home from the left side of the box.

Roma then sat back as the second half began with Sevilla gaining the upperhand. Luck played a big part in the equaliser despite the more positive play from Jose Luis Mendiliar’s men. Jesus Navas whipped the ball in from the right and it deflected off Gianluca Mancini to bring the game level.

There it remained through extra-time before the final went to a penalty shootout. Roma squandered their spot kick and Gonzalo Montiel guided home the winning kick to earn Sevilla their seventh Europa League victory.

Relive the action as Sevilla and Roma clashed in the Europa League showpiece:

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

115 mins: Roger Ibanez is back on his feet and the match goes on in the familiar way. Roma sit back and defend as Sevilla use the wide areas to put in crosses.

More and more players are going down injured now as neither team is prepared to take any chances.

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

111 mins: Roger Ibanez is down after taking an elbow to the face from Erik Lamela. There’s more time going out of the game and there’ll be at least four minutes added on at the end of extra-time.

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

106 mins: Nemanja Gudelj gets the second half of extra-time started in exciting fashion by drilling a long ranged shot wide of the left-hand post.

Rui Patricio watched it go by but it’s been the most excitement this match has seen in a while.

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

105 mins: The first half of extra-time comes and goes incident free. There’s a quick break before the players run around for another 15 minutes waiting for the penalty shootout to start.

I’d be massively surprised if there was a late winner before then.

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

102 mins: As in the second half, Sevilla are the more adventurous side but they haven’t done much with the ball and Roma seem very comfortable keeping them at bay.

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

96 mins: There’s a couple more changes for Sevilla now. Karim Rekik and Gonzalo Montiel take the places of Alex Telles and Jesus Naves.

Sevilla now have fresh legs down the wings and could get after Roma from the wide areas.

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

93 mins: It’s probably safe to say that neither team has gained the respect of any neutral fans watching. It’s been a boring game with very few chances to speak off.

Alex Telles is down for Sevilla, he seems to have some cramp or else has picked up a knock heading a cross clear.

ET Sevilla 1-1 Roma

So, another 30 minutes to play in Budapest to decide who will win the 2023 Europa League. Will there be a winning goal or is this final destined for penalties?

Full-time: Sevilla 1-1 Roma

90+6 mins: Roma face a couple of late shots but Rui Patricio keeps one out before Fernando drags the second wide of the target.

The whistle goes and the Europa League final is going to extra-time!
