Sevilla's Moroccan 'keeper Bono was the hero of the hour in their semi-final against Manchester United; and now he will be looking to go one step further; as his team take on Inter Milan in a premium Europa League final between two classic teams.
Sevilla manager Julen Lopetegui endured a rather torrid time in 2018; after being sacked as Spain coach just before the World Cup started; after agreeing a contract with Real Madrid. Not long after; he was indeed sacked by Real after a disastrous performance and seemed to be stuck in the wilderness.
Now though; he looks back to his best; carrying on the legacy of Unai Emery in turning Sevilla into Europa specialists; reaching an unheard-of 6th final in the last 14 years. But Antonio Conte's Inter are in fine fettle too; they finished second in the tough Serie A and with Romelu Lukaku & Lautaro Martinez a deadly little-and-large combo; they will certainly be fancying their chances as well.
