Goals from Gameiro (1) and Coke (2) helped Sevilla come from behind to beat Liverpool 3-1, thereby winning the Europa League for the third consecutive year.

Entering the match, both Liverpool and Sevilla chose an attacking style of play, creating an attractive tit-for-tat match. |
 |
Liverpool should have been awarded at least one penalty in the first half after three handballs by Sevilla players, but in a poor day at work, referee Jonas Eriksson failed to spot any of them. |
 |
In the 35th minute, after many missed opportunities, the red team took the lead thanks to Daniel Sturridge. The English striker turned and finished delicately, leaving goalkeeper David Soria to fly in despair. |

However, Kevin Gameiro did not have to be sad for long. In just 6 minutes (64'-70'), Coke scored 2 goals to help Sevilla take the lead 3-1. |
 |
This advantage was too big, at a time when the match had just over 15 minutes left to end. |
