Making history

Roberto De Zerbi has hailed Brighton's historic Europa League win over Marseille.

The Seagulls struck late on to top Group B and progress to the knockout phase for the first time in their history.

Boss De Zerbi, 44, said: "I told the players that the game was more important for us than them.

"Marseille are used to playing in European competitions. To finish at the top of the table is a historical moment [for us]. 

"The atmosphere during the game was incredible. The crowd were a 12th player like I've never seen before.

"After going 2-0 down in Marseille in the first game, we changed everything and after that game we won four in a row with four clean sheets. That is incredible."

Focus on the positives

"I just need to recover now and get ready for the weekend or next week when I'm next ready.

"I just want to play as many games as I can. I want to keep playing football and see where it takes me.

"I just need to do well when I do play and keep working hard every day in training, so that's what I’m trying to do. Hopefully I can continue that."

Iron will

Edson Alvarez believes West Ham took an important step forward with their Europa League win over Freiburg.

After being hammered 5-0 by Fulham last weekend, the East Londoners put in a fine performance at the London Stadium last night to top Group A with a 2-0  victory. 

Alvarez, 26, said: "It's an important step for all of us. We showed character, we showed discipline and we showed attitude to play with the ball.

"I think they are three important points because we are now top of the group. 

"It was a very important night for us because now we are just waiting for the next round, so we're very happy.

"It was special, magic night for me."

Kemar Roofe's 78th-minute winner was the difference in Seville and head coach Clement is excited to see what his players can achieve.

He said: "It's an amazing evening. I am really proud of the boys, the way they stuck together, the way they were brave. 

"The things I asked... to be brave, to go with our football, create chances, score good goals and a real top team mentality.

"That's what we need to build on over the next couple of months. If they stick together like this every three days, you always have an amazing season.

"This is a big reference and statement. 

"We are a really hard team to beat, even for top-class teams like Betis, who are in really good form and played a really good game against Real Madrid last week and could have won."
