José Mourinho reaches another European Final

Although Leverkusen's Moussa Diaby struck the crossbar early on and Roma goalkeeper Rui Patrício made key saves, Roma's defense remained solid. They managed to secure their place in the final with just one shot on goal in the entire game.

José Mourinho aims to secure back-to-back European titles with Roma, having won the inaugural edition of the Europa Conference League last season. He previously claimed the Europa League trophy with both Porto and Manchester United and has also won two Champions League titles.

"It's an unbelievable team, I don't know if I can ask for more from Roma, but these guys deserve something special," Mourinho expressed to Sky Sports.

For Roma, winning the Europa League could be their only chance to qualify for next season's Champions League. Sevilla, despite sitting 10th in the Spanish league, has once again proven their heroics in Europe, eliminating Manchester United in the quarterfinals. They aim to shift the season completely by clinching their seventh triumph in the second-tier European competition.
