Five talking points from Sevilla 1-1 Roma (4-1 on pens)
Sevilla won their fifth Europa League in ten years as they defeated Roma 4-1 on penalties after a tightly-contested 1-1 stalemate.
The winning penalty by Gonzalo Montiel — who also scored the crucial spot-kick for Argentina at last year's World Cup — was originally missed but VAR decided there was an encroachment.
The defender eventually tucked his second attempt away to deny Jose Mourinho a historic sixth European trophy as a manager.
The Spanish side have now won a stunning seven Europa League titles.
In normal time, Paulo Dybala's strike in the 35th minute was cancelled out by a Gianluca Mancini own goal and the game remained deadlocked in what was a scrappy spectacle.
Here are five talking points from a tense final in Budapest.
Sevilla do it again
Sevilla came up trumps to claim yet another Europa League trophy.
The Spanish side have now won seven — an incredible record which means they are four clear of the competition's next best side Inter Milan, who have three in their cabinet.
Their stranglehold on this competition is only growing, with their European pedigree now at an all-time high.
A disappointing season in LaLiga means little now with Champions League qualification secured — with every Europa League entrant next term surely praying that they don't drop down after the group stage.
Mourinho's run ends
Jose Mourinho's defiant winning streak in European finals has come to an end.
The Portuguese manager had won every continental showpiece of his managerial career before tonight and he ran Sevilla all the way to penalties before Mancini and Roger Ibanez missed their decisive spot-kicks.
His disappointment at losing this record was clear as he gave away his runners up medal to a fan in the crowd.
Mourinho's side now have to play Spezia at the weekend with Europa League qualification in their hands, with a slip-up potentially forcing them to settle for the Europa Conference League.
Second-half Sevilla
Sevilla didn't manage to lay a glove on the Roma backline in the first-half — but after the restart they looked like a different team.
In order to give his team more attacking thrust, Jose Luis Mendilibar decided to take off Bryan Gil and Oliver Torres, who were mostly ineffective, and bring on Suso and Erik Lamela.
The duo gave their side a lot more threat, receiving the ball in central and wide positions to create overloads.
Sevilla upped the tempo decisively and grabbed a vital equaliser which swung the final in their direction.
Dybala difference
The signing of Dybala was viewed as a coup for Roma and the Argentine’s goal in the first half here proved why.
After an evenly-balanced first 30 minutes, the Italians won the ball back in the middle of the park and put Dybala through one-on-one with the goalkeeper — with the 29-year-old taking one touch before slotting the ball away well.
It was a rare moment of calm in what was a final full of chaos.
Due to recent injury problems, he had to come off in the 68th minute — Roma lost a lot of attacking firepower as a result, which lessened their control of the game.
Fiery battle
As expected, the game was an extremely fiery affair.
There were 13 yellow cards awarded which is the highest ever total in a Europa League fixture.
Rather summing up the spectacle, there were twice as many fouls (15) as there were shots (7) in the first-half.
Mourinho was typically a menace on the sidelines, constantly bemoaning at the fourth official and referee Anthony Taylor and even picked up a yellow card himself in extra-time.
This was backed up by the Spanish side, who were just as intense — especially when they had a penalty ruled out by VAR in the 75th minute.
