Trophy time
FT: FC Dnipro 2-3 Sevilla
Now for the other side of the coin.
Hand slaps to the crowd all the way as Sevilla make their way towards the trophy.
One by one, the players collect their winners medals before grouping together on a platform. The cameras are waiting underneath to capture that magic moment.
Fernando Navarro is handed the trophy by Michel Platini and up it goes to huge cheers. The ticker tape falls. Lovely stuff.
Post update
FT: FC Dnipro 2-3 Sevilla
Dnipro take the long walk up the steps at the National Stadium in Warsaw. They walk past the Europa League trophy, taking longing looks at it, collect their medals with no sign of a smile and retreat.
They will look back on this moment with great pride but, for the moment, all they feel is misery.

GREAT SAVE!
FC Dnipro 2-3 Sevilla
Carlos Bacca should have been enjoying an even better evening.
He looks certain to score as Stephane Mbia's chipped cross picks him out unmarked 10 yards from goal. He fails to meet the ball properly with his head though and his bundled attempt is deflected over by goalkeeper Denys Boyko.
Dnipro are still alive - just.

GOAL
FC Dnipro 2-3 Sevilla - Carlos Bacca
Dnipro only have themselves to blame as Sevilla take the lead again.
They sky the ball up in the air to put their defence under real pressure. Stephana Mbia prods the ball forward, Vitola slides it through and Carlos Bacca is in the right place to drill home his seconds.
History beckons for Sevilla.

PENALTY APPEAL
FC Dnipro 2-2 Sevilla
Another right wing corner and more chaos in the Dnipro box. The ball flashes across the face of goal and is picked up on the left by Ever Benega. He pushes the ball past Ruslan Rotan before going down. There looks little contact. No penalty.

Are we seeing signs of Dnipro tiring? I wouldn't be surprised. Their work rate has been tireless but this last 20 minutes could hurt,.
Another corner for Sevilla.
CLOSE!
FC Dnipro 2-2 Sevilla
As we enter the last 25 minutes, Sevilla are slowly getting on top.
They have another corner..... and another.
There is huge scramble in the penalty area, the ball drops at the feet of Grzegorz Krychowiak but his volley from lose range is blocked and the ball is cleared.

Inches away from Leo Matos at the far post. The Dnipro full back stretches as he looks to get on the end of a chipped pass but it is too far away and he can only divert the ball the wrong way.
A decent start from both sides though.

HALF-TIME
FC Dnipro 2-2 Sevilla
The last two Europa League finals have been goalless at the break.
Not this one!
Post update
FC Dnipro 2-2 Sevilla
So 5-5 anyone?
Both teams are throwing men forward and looking as though they can score with every attack.
Both managers will look to tighten things up at the break surely? Hope they don't do. This is enjoyable.
GOAL
FC Dnipro 2-2 Sevilla - Ruslan Rotan
This game just gets better.
Dnipro skipper Ruslan Rotan sizes up a free-kick 25 yards out. He takes a few steps back, approaches the ball, and curls it over the wall and into the top corner.
Goalkeeper Sergio Rico was nowhere near it.
What a match.

Not from that delivery but they come forward again as they start pressing the Spaniards further up the pitch.
Their new pressing tactic leaves gaps at the other end though and, after losing the ball, they nearly concede as Aleix Vidal screams a shot over the bar.
Thrilling stuff so far.

Yes they can if that is anything to go by.
Dnipro's Yevhen Konoplyanka steps inside and curls a shot towards the top corner from 20 yards. It looks goal-bound all the way until a diving Sergio Rico tips the ball over the bar.
No wonder Rico has just been called up for Spain. That was class.

What a turnaround.

Carlos Bacca, Sevilla's top scorer in the competition, times his run to perfection, rounds goalkeeper Denys Boyko and slides the ball into the back of the net.
Brilliant.
GOAL
FC Dnipro 1-1 Sevilla - Grzegorz Krychowiak
It was coming. Another corner comes in from the left, Carlos Bacca knocks the ball down and Poland defender Grzegorz Krychowiak drills low through a crowd of players into the net.
The Poles in the crowd will have enjoyed that.

FC Dnipro 1-0 Sevilla
Dnipro goalkeeper Denys Boyko shows his good and bad side there.
Firstly he brilliantly dives to his left to parry away Gregorz Krychowiak's header but, from the resulting corner, he flaps at the ball and is lucky to see the ball bounce off Sevilla's Stephane Mbia and go wide.
He has a mistake in him...

FC Dnipro 1-0 Sevilla
Dnipro goalkeeper Denys Boyko doesn't look particularly convincing as he comes to deal with a floated free-kick into the penalty area. He just about manages to punch away before being clattered by Sevilla's Timothee Kolodzoejczak. Foul conceded but Sevilla will like what they see from Boyko.
They have a corner as well...

It's that man again.
Joe Antonio Reyes cuts in from the right and flashes a low drive from 20 yards wide of goal. Some fans are on their feet as the ball nestles on the back of the net after rebounding off the hoarding.

FC Dnipro 1-0 Sevilla
Sevilla are faced with a blue wall as they continue to come forward. Dnipro look happy sitting deep and soaking up wave after wave of attack.
You can see their thinking as well as, on the rare occasion they have stolen the ball, they look dangerous on the break.

Dnipro's danger man, Yevhen Konoplyanka bursts down the left on a rare break but his cross is poor and cleared by the front man, with Nikola Kalinic waiting to pounce behind.
Post update
FC Dnipro 1-0 Sevilla
Arsenal fans will know all about Jose Antonio Reyes and he is looking a constant threat for Sevilla. He may have lost some of his pace but his intelligence is still there. Don't be surprised to see him have a major impact.

Chance. Good defending by Dnipro though.
Vitola bursts onto a cross from the left by Benoit Tremoulinas but his shot is well blocked. Sevilla look as though they will create chances.

GOAL
FC Dnipro 1-0 Sevilla - Nikola Kalinic
What was I saying? Forget that.
A brilliant forward's goal from ex-Blackburn man Nikola Kalinic as Dnipro take a shock lead.He flicks on a long ball, gets himself into the penalty area and is in the right place to head home to Matheus's cross from the right.
Could there be an upset on the cards?
PENALTY APPEAL
FC Dnipro 0-0 Sevilla
Dnipro look up against it early on. Sevilla are almost camped in the Ukrainians' half as they look for the early break.
Referee Martin Atkinson waves away a penalty appeal from the Spaniards as Jose Antonio Reyes goes down under the challenge of Ruslan Rotan. A half-hearted shout to say the least.
Post update
FC Dnipro 0-0 Sevilla
You can say what you like about the importance of the Europa League, but the fans in Poland this evening are loving it. A really good atmosphere early on.
Post update

Ukrainian Premier League
Myron Markevych, Dnipro coach: "It's true we weren't planning on playing in the final this season, but you get more appetite once you start eating. Once we beat Olympiacos (in the round of 32) I started believing that we could go to the semi-finals at least.
"I am a fan of Spanish football, that's true. Not only me, though - many people all over the world are fans. I like their style of play, how the team performs on the pitch. I think Sevilla are quite similar to Napoli, probably because they both have Spanish coaches and the way they play is similar.
"If I said the players were not worried, that would not be right. Of course they feel nervous, but the important thing is that they stop being nervous as soon as they get onto the pitch."
Manager view

Spanish La Liga
Unai Emery, Sevilla coach: "Details matter a great deal when two teams like this play each other over 90 minutes. It's going to be a close call, so our concentration and focus must be more than 100% to ensure that the details work in our favour.
"Dnipro are a very well-organised team - their defence is really solid. They are also skilled at pressing up front, so keeping hold of the ball is not going to be easy for us. That is one of the keys to their success; they can really press the opposition.
"We have analysed and studied Dnipro. We have gathered information from Juande [Ramos], as well as [former assistants] Marcos Alvarez and [Juan] Muniz because we want to know them in detail. All three of these have worked at Dnipro and they know them well.
"I don't have a crystal ball, but we'll see what we can do. On the basis of what's happened up until now, we know this will be a very difficult match."

The National Stadium in Warsaw is jumping.
Here come the teams, past the Europa League trophy, and onto the field.
England's Martin Atkinson is the referee - probably the closest we will get to this stage for a while...
The impact of the Europa League
No-one wants to play in the Europa League, right?
Common theory paints the competition as a hindrance, but does it actually harm a club's Premier League hopes?
BBC Sport studied 10 seasons since the Europa League - from last season's competition - introduced group stages to find exactly what impact a campaign has on league performance.
We crunched every season-on-season position change and analysed each league result which followed a Europa League fixture and found the following.
European Experience
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
Spanish La Liga
It isn't just Sevilla as a team who are experienced in this competition.
- Their Portuguese defender Daniel Carrico has made more Europa League appearances (group stage to final) than any other player in the competition's history - 47.
- Midfielder Jose Antonio Reyes is Sevilla's most experienced European campaigner with 90 UEFA club competition games to his name.
- Carlos Bacca is the only player to have featured in all 14 of Sevilla's games.
Goals galore
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
Blackburn fans will remember Nikola Kalinic. The Croatia international arrived at Ewood Park from Hadjuk Split in 2009 - for in the region of £6m - and scored seven goals in 33 appearances in the 2009-10 campaign.
But Kalinic stuck just eight times in 21 games in his last season and slipped down boss Steve Kean's pecking order.
Record breakers?
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
Sevilla will make history if they win tonight. No other team has won the Uefa Cup/Europa League on four occasions. They are currently level with Inter, Juventus and Liverpool with three victories.
Sevilla's record is all the more impressive considering all their successes have come since 2006. They do love the Europa League.

They beat Benfica on penalties to win the Europa League in Turin, their third triumph in the competition in nine seasons.
Will it be a fourth in 10 this evening?

We asked you for some of the more unusual names in football.
Alan, Glasgow: I own a couple of Crvena Zvezda (Red Star Belgrade) tops, and once went to see Kilmarnock vs Zeljeznicar Sarajevo. Two tough teams to pronounce.
Metin from London: It has to be Anzhi Makhachkala, back when they were a big thing. Even when I typed this I had to google for the correct spelling ha ha.
James, Kent: When Guylain Ndumbu Nsungu signed for Gillingham in 2006, we were certainly struggling to spit that name out!

Road to the final - Sevilla
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
Sevilla progressed to the knockout stage by finishing second to Feyenoord in their group and breezed through their last-32 and last-16 games, beating Borussia Monchengladbach and Villarreal 4-2 and 5-2 respectively.
In the quarter-finals, Sevilla faced Zenit and a 2-1 home win in the first leg proved crucial as they drew the second leg 2-2, cementing a 4-3 aggregate win.
Fiorentina were their semi-final opponents but the Italians proved no match for Sevilla, who cruised through to the final with a 5-0 aggregate win.
Road to the final - Dnipro
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
After finishing second to Inter Milan in their group, Dnipro beat Olympiacos 4-2 on aggregate in the round of 32 before edging Ajax on away goals following a 2-2 aggregate draw in the last-16, their goal in a 2-1 defeat at Ajax proving decisive.
Next up was Club Brugge, unbeaten on their way to the quarter-finals, but after Dnipro had earned a 0-0 draw in Belgium in the first leg, Yevhen Shakhov won it for Dnipro with a goal in the return tie.
Finally, they overcame Napoli in the semi-final as Yevhen Seleznyov earned a 1-1 draw in Italy, before the striker scored the games only goal in the second leg to seal Dnipro's place in the final.
Hectic schedule
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
Dnipro have certainly been busy.
They started 2014/15 in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League, meaning they have had to play 18 matches to make it to the final.
Sevilla have strolled through in comparison, playing just 14 matches.
Will it be one step too far for the Ukrainians?
Team news
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
Striker Yevhen Seleznyov, who scored both goals in Dnipro's 2-1 aggregate semi-final win over Napoli, has to settle for a place on the bench as he recovers from a knee injury. Fellow forward Nikola Kalinic, who played for Blackburn between 2009 and 2011, leads the attack.
Former Arsenal forward Jose Antonio Reyes starts for Sevilla, along with five-goal top scorer Carlos Bacca, the only player to have featured in all 14 of Sevilla's games.

Masters v the apprentice
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
This is very much a case of the master vs the apprentice.
Spanish La Liga outfit Sevilla have reached three previous finals in this competition - and have won them all. Tonight's sees them go for a record fourth title.
Ukrainian Premier League side FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk on the other hand are in the first ever European final.
David v Goliath? Very much so.
Regrets? We had a few
FC Dnipro v Sevilla (19:45 BST)
Good evening and welcome to live text of the Europa League final.
A competition that is much maligned for most of the season but, for the winners in Warsaw this evening, a Champions League place awaits.
For the losers? Just regrets and a feeling of 'why did we bother'?
The party has already started in Poland but only one set of fans will still carrying the celebrations on post match.
It is all worth it?
They've had to play 14 or more matches to get here, travelled thousands of miles, played on some dodgy pitches and performed in front of sparse attendances.
Is it really worth it?
Dnipro and Sevilla can only answer that in a few hours time.
