Roma beat Bayer Leverskusen, Juventus clinched a draw in the dying minutes against Sevilla

The highly-expected all-Italian Europa League final this season is not sure to happen after the first semi-final matches in the tournament.

In Rome AS Roma managed to take a slim advantage after beating Bayer Leverkusen. The only goal at Stadio Olimpico was scored after 63 minutes of play as Edoardo Bove fired a rebound into the bottom left corner of the goal.


The other clash between Juventus and Sevilla finished 1-1 after late drama. The away side opened the scoring in the 26th minute when Lucas Ocampos sent a great pass to Youseff En Nesyri and he was quick to take the shot for 0-1.

With three minutes to go Adrien Rabiot was fouled in the box and it looked like a certain penalty, but VAR didn’t take any actions to review the situation.

In the 6-minute stoppage time Gatti managed to score a header after a corner kick, which was played by Paul Pogba who sent the ball towards the goal line and the youngster Gatti scored important goal.
