  1. Goodnight

    That's the end of this live text now. Thanks for joining us tonight as Sevilla beat Roma on penalties to win the Europa League.

    Read the match report here.

  2. Post update

    Sevilla coach Jose Luis Mendilibar, 62, is the Europa League's oldest winning manager.

    Maurizio Sarri had the old record (60) when he won it with Chelsea in 2019.

    It was a first major trophy for Mendilibar and Sarri.

  3. Post update

    Roma’s Paulo Dybala became the firstArgentine to score in a major European final since Lionel Messi in the2011 Champions League final for Barcelona.

  4. Post update

    As mentioned earlier, Jose Mourinho chucked his medal into the crowd before making his way down the tunnel.

    This lucky lad might have watched his team lose but he's going home with a Europa League medal ... bit better than a programme I guess!

  5. Post update

    Sevilla goalkeeper Bono was named man of the match by Uefa.

  6. Post update

    There's a chance neither team will be in the Europa League next year.

    Sevilla will start off in the Champions League, and Roma are only one point above seventh-placed Juventus going into the final day in Serie A.

I've just gone back to watch again and the keepers left foot is clearly still on the line when the pen is taken.This one could rumble on, no wonder Jose has just thrown his runners up medal away from Andrew

    Roma players get their runners-up medals. Jose Mourinho got his a few minutes ago. It's probably on eBay now.

  12. Post update

    Usually I'd make a joke about the officials getting medals - but they deserve it tonight. Both sets of players and coaches were shocking really.

  13. Post update

    Sevilla players, with their nations' flags wrapped around them, give the officials and Roma players a guard of honour.

  14. Post update

    Jose Mourinho takes his runners-up medal off, throws it to a fan in the crowd and walks down the tunnel.

  15. Post update

    The trophy stage is set up. I'm sure Sevilla know their way round the formalities by now.

  16. Post update

    Only two of the first 11 Europa League finals (since its rebrand in 2009-10) went to extra time but each of the last three have now gone into extra time - and all went to penalties.

  17. Post update

    Busy night for Roma defender Gianluca Mancini.

    He got his first European assist since last year's Europa Conference League final.

    Then he became the second player to score an own goal in a Europa League final.

    Then he missed a penalty.

    He also got booked.

    OG and missed pen. Not a good day at the office for Mancini.

  19. A record-breaking night...

    There were 13 yellow cards in tonight’s match – seven for Roma and six for Sevilla – which is the most yellow cards shown in a match in the history of all the major European competitions.
