Former Lokomotiv Moscow player Dmitry Bulykin shared his views on the successful performance of Spanish Sevilla in the Europa League.
“Why is Sevilla performing well in the Europa League while they’re in the middle in La Liga? There are 38 rounds in the Spanish championship, you have to constantly prove yourself there. There are other teams, it’s a different style. In Spain everybody knows you, your game is shattered. And In the Europa League everything is decided in two games. There is a different mood. I think in the Europa League everything depends on the mood of a particular game. I think Sevilla has a psychological advantage over their Europa League rivals. A lot of people there are afraid of them “Seville understands that there is no room for error in the Europa League,” he said.
Recall that Sevilla defeated Roma in the Europa League final. The main and extra time of the decisive match of the tournament ended with a score of 1:1 and the fate of the cup was decided in the penalty shootout, where the players of the Spanish team were stronger (4:1).
For Sevilla, this was their seventh win in the Europa League. The club has never lost in this European Cup final. It has won the UEFA Cup twice and the Europa League five times in the last 18 years.
