Goals from Gameiro (1) and Coke (2) helped Sevilla come from behind to beat Liverpool 3-1, 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 Army took the lead thanks to Daniel Sturridge. The English striker turned and finished delicately, leaving goalkeeper David Soria helpless. |
