West Ham dispatches the king of the Europa League in a 120-minute duel

London England. (Agencies) – A goal from Yarmolenko in the second part of extra time gave him the pass to the quarterfinals of the Europa League yet West Ham which was higher than Sevilla (2-0). Lopetegui’s men had a pretty bad game and went home with all they deserved.

From the beginning, the ‘hammers’ showed their cards and cornered their opponent in a beautiful way. Michail Antonio was being a nuisance up front as was Pablo Fornals who was also one of the best of his team.

Bono knew that the game was in his hands and he saved his team in more than one action. The clearest was the hand that he put into Michail Antonio shortly before the forward’s goal. Very good action by Benrahma and a dry shot from number ‘9’, which found a great response from the Moroccan.

Second time

The second act began as the first ended. West Ham unceremoniously commanded the game while Sevilla continued with their plan of waiting for their rival in their own field.

It is true that the occasions were not entirely dangerous for the ‘hammers’, but the superiority was so overwhelming that it was a miracle that Lopetegui’s men did not score another one in the 90 minutes, who saw some light in a reaction fleeting in the final stretch of the second half.

overtime

Another 30 minutes of suffering for a Sevilla that fell completely apart. He was diminished by casualties and on top of that he was left without a physique against a team whose virtue is that.

Lopetegui tried to make changes to give some freshness to his team, but not even for those. And in an isolated action, at minute 112, West Ham dropped the hammer on the king of the Europa League.
