Sevilla come from behind to beat Liverpool in the Europa League final




Sevilla retain the Europa League and make it an incredible three in a row, five since 2005.

Jurgen Klopp was left baffled and devastated by a shambolic collapse that destroyed his Europa League dream.

The Liverpool boss endured a second half from hell as his side gifted Sevilla the trophy with an inexplicable performance

Daniel Sturridge's magnificent strike with the outside of his left foot gave Liverpool the interval lead during the first half.

The good work was wrecked in the first 17 seconds of the second half when Kevin Gameiro turned in Mariano Ferreira's cross to put Sevilla level.

Liverpool, who were denied a clear first-half penalty when Sevilla's Daniel Carrico clearly handled as Roberto Firmino tried to weave past him, never recovered.

Coke's fine 64th-minute finish confirmed Sevilla's superiority and he added a contentious third from close range, which was initially disallowed but was then given as Liverpool slumped to their second final defeat this season after losing to Manchester City in the Capital One Cup.

The match ended with  Liverpool 1-3 Sevilla
