Sevilla beat Liverpool to win third Europa League title
Sevilla beat Liverpool and ruined the Reds' Champions League hopes as they triumphed in the Europa League final for a third successive season.
Daniel Sturridge gave Liverpool the lead with a sublime strike, but Kevin Gameiro levelled 17 seconds after the break with a simple tap-in.
Once they levelled Sevilla dominated and the Spaniards went ahead through Coke's brilliant first-time hit.
Coke then beat the offside trap for his second which killed off Liverpool.
Sevilla are the first team to win a major European title three years in a row since Bayern Munich won the European Cup three times between 1974 and 1976.
