Sevilla beat Liverpool to retain Europa League title

Sevilla won their third consecutive Europa League title on Wednesday as Coke scored two second-half goals to fire the Spaniards to a 3-1 victory over Liverpool in Basel.

Daniel Sturridge handed Liverpool a 35th-minute lead at St-Jakob Park, but Kevin Gameiro struck an equaliser immediately after half-time.

Coke then drilled Sevilla ahead on 64 minutes before adding his second goal of the game six minutes later as Unai Emery's side lifted the trophy for a record fifth time.
