UEFA Cup final @ Hampden Park, Scotland
Sevilla FC 1-1 RCD Espanyol (2-2 AET - Sevilla win 3-1 on penalties)
So Sevilla become only the second club after Real Madrid to win two consecutive UEFA Cup finals. They could have finished off the game eons back but some slack shooting and an inspired Espanyol got them to the penalties after being down to 10 men. But the Espanyol's nervousness in the penalties showed and Sevilla won in the end.
Now Sevilla are already in the Copa del Rey final, as well as still challenging for La Liga, so they will be a great team in the coming seasons. Congrats to them.
Tough luck for Espanyol but have full reason to be proud of doing so well this season and they were always the underdogs in this game.
btw...Daniel Alves had an atrocious game, all his freekicks and his penalty went miles off target
