6.01pmEvening all! Welcome to Basel!Sports Mole's live Europa League coverage for the 2015-16 season concludes from Switzerland as Liverpool face Sevilla in the final. Can Sevilla land a third straight Europa crown, or will Liverpool taste European glory for the first time under Jurgen Klopp? Let's hope for a cracker!
6.04pmKickoff in Basel is not actually until 7.45pm UK time tonight, but the team news is expected to land in the next 40 minutes and there is plenty to discuss in the build-up. It will be fascinating to see the two starting teams - both managers could spring some surprises here. Rumours around the stadium suggest that Divock Origi could make a surprise return to the Liverpool XI in Switzerland.
6.07pmSomewhat surprisingly, tonight will be the first ever meeting between Liverpool and Sevilla in UEFA competition. Liverpool have faced Spanish opposition on 34 occasions in European football, however, and their record reads won 14, drawn 10 and lost 10. Those matches actually include two finals (and indeed two wins) on neutral territory – 1-0 against Real Madrid in the 1981 European Champion Clubs' Cup in Paris and 5-4 against Deportivo Alaves in the 2001 UEFA Cup in Dortmund.
6.10pmSevilla, meanwhile, have faced English opposition on eight occasions in UEFA competition – recording three wins, two draws and three defeats. Like Liverpool, that run of matches also includes a final victory, with the Spanish outfit beating Middlesbrough 4-0 in the 2006 UEFA Cup final, which took place in Eindhoven. This is what the two teams are playing for in tonight's match...

Scorebot 0 minKICKOFF!You just get the feeling that the first goal tonight - if there indeed is one - could be crucial. I fancy Sevilla to win on penalties tonight, but this one really could go either way! Right, it is Liverpool that kick things off inside this vocal stadium in Basel. Liverpool in red, Sevilla in white...
2 min... very much a 4-2-3-1 formation for Sevilla tonight, with Gameiro acting as the lone striker. Sturridge, meanwhile, is up top for Liverpool, just ahead of Firmino. Sevilla have an early chance to deliver a deep free kick into the Liverpool half, but Lovren is fouled by Krychowiak, says the referee.
4 minCan brings Banega to the deck and the Sevilla midfielder wants an early yellow for his opponent. Can is a touch fortunate after two late challenges early on! Sevilla once again have the chance to deliver a free kick into Liverpool territory, but Can is on hand to clear under little Sevilla pressure.
6 minIt has been a decent start from Sevilla, with the Spanish side on the front foot in the early exchanges. The ball has spent a lot of time in the air, but no real chances to speak of thus far here!
8 minSAVE!Smart save from Soria as the Sevilla stopper gets across his goal to deny Can, who released a strike from outside the box. Plenty of challenges flying in at the moment here!
10 minPlenty of free kicks in the opening 10 minutes and Sevilla have another opportunity to deliver into the Liverpool box as Milner brings Vitolo to the deck. Potentially dangerous for Liverpool here...
11 min... Banega delivers, but it is very comfortable for Mignolet, who releases Sturridge on the right.
12 minCHANCE!Another Liverpool chance as Clyne picks out the head of Sturridge inside the Sevilla box, but Carrico is back to make a goal-line clearance. Not sure about Soria there!
13 minPenalty shout for Liverpool as Carrico seems to handle inside the box, but the referee is not interested. It would have been very harsh in my eyes and the referee was pretty sure of his call.
16 minLiverpool are starting to look dangerous in the final third as Can continues to break from midfield. This Sevilla defence does not look too secure and you sense that the likes of Sturridge will get chances as play develops in Switzerland. Still goalless with 16 minutes on the clock here in Basel.
18 minSuper battle for possession at the moment as the challenges continue to fly in from both teams. The referee is letting the play flow and that is creating a high-tempo and watchable contest.
20 minThe play has just settled in the last minute or two as Sevilla enjoy a sustained period of possession. Liverpool continue to press high, however, and it is forcing mistakes from the Spanish club. As mentioned earlier, you do get the feeling that the first goal tonight - if there is one - could be huge.
23 minThe rain has started to fall once again in Basel, which will only quicken the surface! It has been a pretty even 23 minutes here, but Liverpool have had the two best chances of the match. Gameiro has struggled to get the better of Toure and Lovren at the heart of the Liverpool defence here.
25 minSevilla are enjoying much more of the possession at the moment and Liverpool have been guilty of some sloppy passing in the last minute or two. Still all square though with 25 minutes on the clock.
26 minSAVE!Lallana slides a super pass into Sturridge as Liverpool come close once again, but Soria is out to make a really smart save. Once again Liverpool look more threatening in attack.
29 minRami comes across to challenge Moreno as Sevilla survive another potentially dangerous attack from Liverpool, who have been the more threatening in the final third. We have not seen too much from the likes of Gameiro and Vitolo thus far, but Mariano has just won a corner for the Spanish side.
30 minBOOKING!Lovren (Liverpool) is booked for a poor challenge on Gameiro.
32 minCLOSE!Almost a super goal from Gameiro as the striker produces an over-head kick inside the Liverpool box, but his effort is just wide of the post. Much more like it from him!
35 minLittle over 10 minutes of the first period remaining and we are still all square in Basel. Liverpool have had the better chances, but Sevilla, for me, are edging this final on the whole here.
35 minGOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Sevilla (Sturridge)
36 minLiverpool make the breakthrough 10 minutes before the break as Coutinho plays a pass into Sturridge and the Englishman uses the outside of his foot to bend one into the far corner!
38 minOffensively, Sevilla have been poor in this first period and Unai Emery needs to come up with a solution in the second period. The Spanish side have really struggled to make their mark in attack.
39 minCarrico is forced to block a strike from Lallana as Liverpool come close once again.
39 minGOAL DISALLOWED!Liverpool have the ball in the back of the net for a second time as Lovren heads home from a corner, but Sturridge is adjudged to have influenced play from close range!
42 minSevilla are desperate for the interval as they continue to struggle against Liverpool, who have been fired up since making the breakthrough. A second for Liverpool would make it so tough for Sevilla.
44 minBetter from Sevilla as Can is forced to head behind following a period of pressure from the Spanish outfit. That said, the resulting set piece comes to nothing and Lallana can clear down the field.
45 minCHANCE!Another wonderful chance for Liverpool as Clyne delivers a wicked cross into the Sevilla box, but Sturridge just cannot make contact and Sevilla survive once again.
45 min+1HALF-TIME: Liverpool 1-0 Sevilla
8.31pmSo there we have it. The referee brings the first period to a close with Liverpool leading 1-0 courtesy of a 35th-minute effort from Sturridge, who used the outside of his foot to bend the ball past Soria. Sevilla actually started quite well, but are a touch fortunate to only be one goal behind.
8.36pmSTATS!Liverpool have just shaded the possession with 55%, while they have had five attempts - three of which were on target. Sevilla, however, have only had one attempt and that failed to test Mignolet in the Liverpool net. Just the one yellow to report and that came for Liverpool's Lovren in the 30th minute.
8.41pmBENCH WATCH!Liverpool boss Klopp has three main attacking options on his bench tonight, with Benteke, Henderson and Origi all available. Sevilla, meanwhile, have the likes of Iborra, Konoplyanka and Llorente in reserve tonight. You sense that the Spanish side need to make a change!
46 minRESTART!Here we go then - both sets of players re-join us on the pitch for the second period. Can Sevilla turn this game around in Basel? Let's find out! The La Liga side resume the action here...
46 min... no changes from either side at the break. However, Sevilla had Konoplyanka and Llorente warming up at the break and it would not be a surprise to see those two in the next 15, 20 minutes here.
46 minGOAL! Liverpool 1-1 Sevilla (Gameiro)
47 minOh my word! Sevilla are level here as Mariano drives into the Liverpool box before drilling a low cross into Gameiro, who cannot miss from close range. Poor defending from Moreno there!
49 minCHANCE!Wonderful chance for Gameiro to score a second as the Sevilla striker races through on goal, but Toure comes across to make a stunning challenge. All Sevilla at the moment!
51 minLiverpool have just managed to settle in the last minute or two, but Sevilla are full of energy in this second period and are intent on breaking. Lallana picks up decent space inside the Sevilla box after another smart cross from Clyne, but Carrico just about does enough to bundle it behind the goal!
53 minNormally this type of match would tighten up at 1-1, but Sevilla and Liverpool are both committing numbers forward with each counter-attack and I would be surprised if we had seen the last of the goals in the 90 minutes. Origi seems to be getting ready to enter the frame for Liverpool here.
56 minIt is the Sevilla supporters that can be heard at the moment as their team continues to threaten in the final third. Mariano has been very, very lively down the right for Sevilla since the restart.
56 minBOOKING!Vitolo (Sevilla) is booked for a late challenge on Lallana.
57 minBOOKING!Banega (Sevilla) is booked for a late challenge on Toure.
60 minLittle over 30 minutes of normal time remaining and we are locked at 1-1 in Basel. Both teams have players warming up on the sidelines and it will be fascinating to see which manager makes the first move.
61 minSAVE!Wonderful chance for Sevilla to score a second as Gameiro finds all sorts of time at the far post, but the striker cannot beat Mignolet from close range. What a chance there!
63 minThe tide has turned in this second period and Sevilla are looking the team more likely to make something happen in the final third. Gameiro and Banega continue to link in the final third here.
64 minGOAL! Liverpool 1-2 Sevilla (Coke)
65 minStadium silenced! Sevilla have turned this game around as Vitolo's brilliant run ends with Coke sweeping one into the far corner. It is a wonderful strike from the Sevilla captain here!
67 minLiverpool are going to make a change here and that is no surprise. Sevilla have been the better team since the restart and deserve to lead 2-1 with little over 20 minutes left of the final.
69 minLIVERPOOL SUB!Fit-again Origi replaces Firmino for Liverpool.
70 minGOAL! Liverpool 1-3 Sevilla (Coke)
71 minSevilla score a third in the 70th minute as Coke hammers home his second at the far post! Liverpool wanted offside and they seemed to have a good shout, but the goal stands, controversially!
72 minBOOKING!Origi (Liverpool) is booked for a high challenge on Rami.
73 minLIVERPOOL SUB!Allen replaces Lallana in Liverpool's second change.
75 minLiverpool are still in this final, but they need to find a way of breaching this Sevilla defence, which has been strong in the second period. At the moment, Sevilla are winning this competition again!
77 minSEVILLA SUB!Kolo replaces the injured Rami for Sevilla.
77 minBOOKING!Rami (Sevilla) is booked for dissent.
79 minLiverpool only need one goal to make a real contest of this in the final 10 minutes and you sense that we have not seen the last of the action here. Klopp looks nervous on the touchline as Coutinho sends one over the Sevilla crossbar. Not much of an atmosphere inside the stadium at the moment.
82 minLIVERPOOL SUB!Benteke replaces Toure in Liverpool's final change.
84 minBOOKING!Mariano (Sevilla) is booked for wasting time.
85 minSoria gets down to keep out a strike from Sturridge as Sevilla keep their 3-1 lead in tact.
87 minLiverpool have the chance to break as a Sevilla free kick comes to nothing, but Kolo is on hand to clear down the field after Sturridge fails to collect. Eventually Coke has the chance to strike on goal once again, but his effort is deflected wide of the post. What has happened to Coke in this game!
89 minGameiro breaks through once again, but this time the striker is offside. Not long left!
90 minSEVILLA SUB!Iborra replaces Gameiro for Sevilla.
90 min+1We are into the first of four additional minutes in Basel.
90 min+2Sevilla are heading a third successive Europa League win, which is just incredible. It will also be their fifth trophy in total in this competition, which includes the UEFA Cup!
90 min+3Vitolo bends one over the crossbar as Sevilla threaten again on the counter-attack.
90 min+4SEVILLA SUB!Cristoforo replaces Banega for Sevilla.
90 min+4BOOKING!Clyne (Liverpool) is booked for a poor challenge on Vitolo.
90 min+5FULL-TIME: Liverpool 1-3 Sevilla
9.39pmIt is all over! Incredible scenes on the field as Sevilla celebrate yet another Europa League success. It is their third in succession and fifth in total. What a second-half performance from them here!
9.41pm'Sevilla' are being scribed onto the Europa League trophy as Liverpool players hang their heads. Klopp has something to say to the referee about Sevilla's third goal, but that is done and dusted now. Sevilla are the 2016 Europa League winners and Emery can hardly contain himself here!
9.44pmJames Milner has just toldBT Sportthat his team 'did not turn up' in the second period, but is confident that Liverpool will come again. We will have more reaction from Basel as and when it comes!
9.46pmThat is just about it from me tonight. Sevilla are about to claim the trophy and Coke will lift it having scored a brace in the final, quite a story for him! Thanks for joiningSports Molefor the action!
