Europa League final between Eintracht Frankfurt and Rangers at the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán in Seville. Single match, in case of a draw, extra time will follow and if necessary the penalty procedure. The winning team will win its participation in the groups of the next Champions League.
Eidracht's progress in the tournament from the beginning to the end was impressive and it was fair - and in fact undefeated - tonight to claim the trophy. In the group stage with opponents Fener, Olympiakos and Antwerp, he finished in the first place of the standings with a record of 3 wins and 3 draws.
In the knockout matches it was even better, initially it eliminated Betis with a victory in Spain and a draw in the replay at home while in the quarterfinals it made the big surprise by leaving out Barcelona with a draw in the first match in Germany while in the replay it prevailed in Barcelona.
In the semifinals she faced West Ham and prevailing in both matches was the one who qualified in the grand final of the event.
Of course, all this course had its price as in the German championship he could not have a good year with the characteristic that he finished in 11th place with 42 points and to play next year in European stadiums he must win the cup tonight.
A frenzy in the ranks of her fans as she was followed in Seville by 50.000 of her fans but only 1/5 have tickets for today's match !!
Η moderate course in the group stage for Rangers, where it was difficult to qualify behind Lyon and over Sparta Prague and Brondby, did not leave much optimism for a good course of the team in the tournament.
However, as time went on, her performance improved, the qualification to the 32 of the tournament against Dortmund whetted her appetite and she saw that she could overcome it!
Then he initially easily eliminated the Red Star and more difficult Braga in the phase of 8 while in the semifinals against Leipzig overturned with a 3-1 victory at home the defeat in the first match in Germany with 1-0 and celebrated its return to the final of a European tournament after 14 years.
In the Scottish league, he saw Celtic cut the thread first, however, he has the opportunity to close the year with a title next Saturday as he faces Hearts in the cup final.
The madness of her fans is indescribable as 120.000 Scots have flooded the Spanish city despite the fact that 10.000 have tickets by force !!
Grand final between the two pleasant surprises of the event. Eintracht was impressive, they played nice and aggressive football, having even scored in all their games, while the fact that they remained undefeated in the tournament says a lot. Rangers for their part were more efficient, they were lucky with their part in the knockout phase and of course they are a very predictable opponent. I think that the Germans are rightly the favorite for the title even if the extension is needed, while with the quality that they both have, they will not score.
