AS Roma held Bayer Leverkusen to a 0-0 draw in Germany on Thursday, setting up a Finals date with six-time champions Sevilla. Roma had beaten Leverkusen 1-0 in the first leg match at home. Sevilla, on the other hand, beat Juventus 2-1 to prevent an all-Italian final. Leverkusen started aggressively with Moussa Diaby hitting the crossbar early on. They could not, however, capitalise on the opportunities, eventually losing 1-0 on aggregate. Roma manager Jose Mourinho is now eyeing his sixth European trophy. Mourinho has previously won the Europa League titles with FC Porto and Manchester United teams. Winning the title will also help Roma qualify for next year's UEFA Champions League. The final will be played in Budapest on May 31.
