Sevilla vs Roma LIVE: Result and reaction as Sevilla win Europa League via penalty shootout

Sevilla 1-1 Roma (Sevilla win 4-1 via penalties): They won the Europa League for a record-extending seventh time

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.

Sevilla 0-1 Roma

45+3 mins: Bryan Gil is slipped into space on the right wing and gets into the box for Sevilla. He should cross the ball but cuts back onto his left foot and dallies too long in possession.

Roma’s many defenders flock to him and recover the ball before booting it well clear.

Sevilla 0-1 Roma

45 mins: There’s going to be seven minutes of injury time in this first half. This match has really been a battle of attrition with one of two players coming off worse for wear.

Sevilla 0-1 Roma

44 mins: Close! A Sevilla corner is whipped into the box where Fernando sneaks in behind Nemanja Matic. He leaps above the Roma midfielder and wins the aerial ball but can only head it over the crossbar.

Sevilla 0-1 Roma

41 mins: Roma are going to be difficult to beat now. They’ve got themselves into the lead and will be disciplined in defence. Jose Mourinho’s teams usually are and they will no doubt get men behind the ball when Sevilla have possession.

The Spanish side haven’t been threatening at all.

Sevilla 0-1 Roma

38 mins: There’s a bit of needle in the game now. Sevilla’s dugout have been kicking off with the officials since the goal was scored and that frustration is boiling over onto the pitch.

Ivan Rakitic takes out Roger Ibanez gifting Roma a free kick in the middle of the pitch.

GOAL! Sevilla 0-1 Roma (Dybala, 35’)

35 mins: Roma strike first! Bryan Cristante wins the ball off Ivan Rakitic in the middle of the pitch then pokes it to Gianluca Mancini.

Mancini threads a wonderful pass up the pitch to Paulo Dybala who touches the ball into the box and smokes it across the area to pick out the far bottom corner!

Sevilla 0-0 Roma

30 mins: There’s a penalty shout from Roma as the ball is clipped into the box. It bounces across towards Tammy Abraham who bends to control the ball with his head.

Nemanja Gudelj is on hand to clear his lines but raises his foot quite high and clips Abraham on the head. The Roma players want a penalty and VAR gets involved but nothing come from it.

Sevilla 0-0 Roma

27 mins: Sevilla have had a surprising 59% possession. It doesn’t feel like it as they haven’t hit their stride with Roma getting men behind the ball when they lose possession.

The Italian side are more direct too and have, so far, created the only real chance of the game.

Sevilla 0-0 Roma

24 mins: Ivan Rakitic does boot the ball long but Chris Smalling leaps highest and heads it away from Roma.

The Spanish side attempt to keep the pressure on with Oliver Torres weaving around the edge of the box but Roma are well drilled and force Sevilla into a retreat.

Sevilla 0-0 Roma

21 mins: Nemanja Matic sees the first yellow card of the game for an elbow to Lucas Ocampos’ face. Jose Mourinho isn’t happy with the decision and it’s perhaps a touch harsh from the referee.

Sevilla win a free kick and have the opportunity to send one into the box.
