My prediction was wrong, sevila was amazing today. Even though they conceded first they were able to win the match. Sevila became the team that won the most European trophies with six titles. Seeing the match, Inter's chance should have added one more goal in the 65th minute, Lukaku only faced the goalkeeper, and Lukaku's decision was too bad. I think they had no luck today even though Conte brought in Eriksen, Sanchez and Victor Moses to add goals, but that didn't happen.

yeah, I am so sad that Inter didn't win this, but at the end, have to send Congrats to Sevilla, it was a fantastic match, that's football

so close in SeriaA and so close in Europa League... 

After the first half ended I said to my old man that this will go to extra time.It looked like it will be a power struggle in midfield in the second half, but that damn unlucky own goal by Lukaku completely stunned Inter.

Inter should have risked more, even if that meant conceding 4th goal, especially last 10 minutes of the match. More long balls on Lukaku, less passing in the defensive line in my opinion.

Sevilla did exactly what was expected, fully professional approach, chopping the play time in half in the last 10 minutes disrupting Inter's rhythm completely.After on chance in Sevilla's box there was like 3 Sevilla's play laying around like bomb exploded...

Anyway a bit sad cos of Inter, but it is what it is, it was not enough to take Sevilla.

[Renampun]

damn, this month, Sevilla makes me lose money twice...
I admit the match was really tight, Sevilla put on a good game like the one against MU in the last semifinal. Football matches during this outbreak are really difficult to predict.

[snipie]

This game result was unexpected twice, Sevilla winning and many goals. My respect for Sevilla, although it wasn't favorites in the bookies, getting an early goal but they won after all. It is called the specialist of Europa League for a reason really.
Waiting to see Bayern and PSG

First Half down and a match many thought would be a low scoring game already has 4 goals in it

what am saying is the match can be a goal feast and also be a barren or few goals Match.

I had that feeling tonight UEFA Europa league final game could be a high scoring game if the momentum is right. I think this first half would have a higher goals than the second half.

I expected 2-0 or 2-1 from Inter but Sevilla proves again why they're the kings of Europa, and why they deserve the mad respect a lot of people have for them. Now if only they could bring some quality into their CL group stages!

@rdbase damn I should have picked that boosted odds 2.4 for Inter 2 goals, I knew they were good for it, even if they did need a penalty.

Well, when they are too good in the UCL group stage, they won't relegate to the Europa League and can't win the Europa leauge - again Seriously, I'd rather see them rocking the Europa league than getting knocked out in the round of last sixteen in the Champions League.

But on the other hand, after they managed to beat, amongst others, AS Roma, ManUnited and Inter this season, they should very well have the ability to play a good role in the Champions league as well. Leipzig was a good example for a weaker team to make some surprising results this season.

Simply great match, one of the best Europa league finals in recent years. Completely opposite what I expected before the game. Beautiful attacking football, lot of dangerous moments. Lukaku - from hero to zero. Lopetegui - after he left Spanish national team and failed completely in Real Madrid, finally he got chance to rebuild his reputation.
6th trophy for Sevilla - time to rename it to UEFA Sevilla league.
I know there is many Inter fans here - I just feel sorry for you guys. But current Inter is going in right direction and I'm sure you'll get your chance soon.

To be fair even the semifinals were great and Sevilla had to beat Man Utd, but Inter actually defeated the really tough opponent Wolves to get to this stage. Beautiful football I agree and arguably shows everyone that Europa League really isn't as shitty as many people are saying.
And yeah don't worry Inter fans. Next year is yours.

Yeah, one almost suspected they looked at their chances and thought, you know what, let's go for third and win Europa again haha. But no, any club with ambition wants the big prize and it would be awesome to see them reach the semis, maybe set up a Liverpool-Sevilla rematch (I still hurt from that Europa final loss haha).

The result was a close one as the third goal of Sevilla was kind of lucky.
Maybe Europa league should be named as Sevilla League they are winning the Europa League title almost every year.

lol at Sevilla League. Well since Sevilla is ranked fourth in La Liga this season so it will play in Champions League the next season. So no more EL title next year for Sevilla, fortunately for the other teams

Sevilla has won the Europa League I think the most compared to other teams.Although this last game they were lucky because of Inter own goal.In Champions League they have never done well so I think at a certain point they will still drop to Europa league and unfortunately there can be more Europa League again for Sevilla.

Some interesting 40x odds tonight in qualifications but I know only a few of the teams playing tonight. I have the feeling there is a lot of potential for upset if anyone knows the teams well,,, any good tips guys?

Spurs is playing of course, so I have a small bet on them -2 handicap:)

When there is just one game played, betting on it becomes more tricky and risky. I don't see many games which would be really safe to bet. I'm planning to go with APOEL win @1.6 and pick goals over in some games with very obvious favorite.

Was searching for the one with this kind of odds, it is Lincoln Red Imps vs Rangers.
There is also x60 odds in the game between Standard Liege and Bala Town
Barely I can recognise some teams, APOEL seems to have a good odd like LTU_btc mentioned. Galatasaray? and Copenhagen odds look interesting too imo.

@leea-1334 Spurs is low on confidence after their defeat to Everton, and this is an excellent opportunity for Plovdiv to attack them, and try and cause an upset by defeating them. Furthermore is anyone else puzzled by Mourinho's decision to drop Alli from the squad for tonight’s fixture, because in my opinion he’s a nice player, and definitely deserves to be in the starting lineup.

they're playing vs. a weak side from Kazakhstan (2-1 apoel in HT) so those were some good odds to grab. I must've missed this match cuz i woulda added it to my parlay

i'm going with this 6 fold at almost 9 odds


i should've added more favs to win like AC Milan, Astana, would've boosted the odds to maybe 12/1   edit* winner winner! phew! dodged a bullet with Astana

Sorry, I didn't see this one earlier but I picked Lokomotiv Tbilisi to beat Dinamo Moskow at 8/1 (in my daily thread). They were leading most of the way, and even got it to 2-0 at 90 minutes before conceding a penalty. Still won me my bet, so it's my first underdog pick of the season, thank you Europa League;) It was very, very kind to me last season at this stage as well.

Sorry about Spurs =p You had to fight back too =p

@toma: I was thinking to even parlay my pick with Astana, but phew too! To imagine they actually almost beat United last season.
