Shakhtar’s semi-final second leg match started in the worst possible option – in the ninth minute the kid lost the ball from his penalty area, Gameiro and quickly punished the Pitmen’s midfielder for gross error.
Sevilla confidently controlled the course of the game, but the ending half left for Shakhtar. In the 44th minute after Eduardo amazing transfer Marlos equalized, and in the very next attack, the defender has prevented Kovalenko slotted home a cross from Marlos.
All hopes of Shakhtar on the final in the opening stages of the second half broke Gameiro – restless Frenchman received a pass from Krychowiak, beat Pyatov and put the ball into the empty net. After 10 minutes the provision of Donetsk has become catastrophic Mariano spectacular long range shot extended the lead for Sevilla.
The Spaniards without any problems kept the advantage – “Shakhtar” in the second half, I can only recall smashing Eduardo, the head bringing up the rear of the Srna cross.
