La Vecchia Signora plays a pivotal match with Sevilla for the decisive title clash in the Hungarian capital, highlighting a dramatic European journey.
The king of the Europa League, Sevilla, added another remarkable feat to its trophy list by overwhelming Manchester United 3-0, securing a spot in the semi finals of the same competition. Once again, the Andalusian club sits among the top four of Europe’s secondary tournament, reaffirming its status as a perennial force in this prestigious competition.
Sevilla’s potential semi-final opponents in the 2022-2023 Europa League
In contrast to earlier rounds, there will be no draw to determine Sevilla’s next opponent in the Europa League, and on March 17 the team learned not only who stood in the penultimate round but also which potential opponent could meet them in the semifinals.
Juventus Turin stood as the last hurdle before Sevilla could reach the final, a fixture shaped by the aggregate score after a brisk clash that ended 2-1 in favor of the Italian side. This result helped erase the sting from an earlier setback and came on the back of Juventus’s recovery efforts following sanctions in January that had impacted their Serie A tally.
The Italian club therefore presented a formidable obstacle for the reigning Europa League champions as they prepared for another final in a competition that has helped define Sevilla’s European identity. It was a moment that underscored the leadership of manager Jose Luis Mendilibar as the club navigated a season that looked uncertain at times but could still finish with a historic triumph for the Andalusian side.
