Eintracht Frankfurt wins UEFA Europa League
Eintracht Frankfurt beat Rangers 5-4 on penalties to win the Europa League on Wednesday after the final in Seville finished 1-1 at the end of extra time.
Aaron Ramsey missed for Rangers in the shoot-out after coming on as a substitute with only three minutes left of extra-time, before Rafael Borre struck the winning shot to complete Frankfurt’s remarkable triumph, according to France 24.
Borre was the hero of the night, after already cancelling out Joe Aribo's opener for Rangers, as Frankfurt won their first European trophy since 1980 and booked their place in next season’s Champions League.
"We are all heroes. Without the fans, we wouldn’t have made it," said Frankfurt goalkeeper Kevin Trapp.
Both clubs were looking to win a second European title in their history, Rangers after clinching the Cup Winners’ Cup in 1972 and Frankfurt after they lifted the UEFA Cup 42 years ago.
