Liverpool’s hopes of European football next season were ended in brutal fashion last night as Sevilla dished out a memorable 2nd half comeback to win the Europa League, and with it a place in next seasons Champions League.
Trying not to sob into the microphone, I join Mike and Paul to discuss Liverpool’s capitulation in the latest episode of EPLpod. Listen below.
Bend it like Sturridge? What a strike this is from Daniel Sturridge.
After a slightly nervy looking start for Liverpool, Daniel Sturridge gave his side the lead in the final of the Europa League vs Sevilla after 35 minutes with a truly sublime effort.
Collecting a square pass from Coutinho just inside the Sevilla box, Sturridge curled a gorgeous effort into the far corner.
Watch Sturridge’s opening goal vs Sevilla below.

#FarewellBoleyn indeed.
It’s all kicking off between West Ham United fans and the Manchester United team bus. Kick off between the actual teams has been delayed due to the Man United team bus being given an almighty pelting with bottles as it made it’s way to the Boleyn ground.
Quite a send off for what will be West Ham’s last game at the Boleyn ground. Watch video footage of the mayhem below. I promise you, this is not footage from the 1970’s

It’s not been a good past week for Manchester City. Having exited the Champions League with a whimper, they are in danger of missing out on the competition altogether after Sunday’s 2-2 draw at home with Arsenal.
Will Manchester United now pip their cross town rivals to 4th spot and send Pep to the Europa League? Listen below to the latest episode of EPLpod as Paul and Mike disect the weekends action.
