Europa League History

The UEFA Europa League was initially known by a few other titles, firstly the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup between 1955 and 1971, before it was renamed the UEFA Cup before being rebranded in 2009 as the Europa League.

Tottenham Hotspur was the first winner of the competition, known as the UEFA Cup. They defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-2 on aggregate

Before the advent of the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Cup saw premier teams who finished below the national champions battle it out to win the trophy. It was exclusively a knockout competition.

Sevilla FC has won the tournament on six occasions, winning every final they've taken part in. The next most successful teams in UEFA Cup/Europa League history are Inter Milan, Liverpool and Juventus, all of whom have won the competition three times. Other massive European teams have emerged victorious, with Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Ajax also picking up the trophy.

FC Shakhtar Donetsk won the last UEFA Cup final before the rebrand, beating Werder Bremen in 2009.

Sevilla FC proved very dominant in the early seasons of the UEFA Europa League, winning three Europa Leagues titles in a row between 2014 and 2016. They have the most Europa League wins, having won it four times in its current form.

The changing of the format hs arguably increased the standing of the competition and it's very much considered a highly prized tournament by the biggest teams in European football.

About Europa League Tickets

Interest in Europa League tickets is huge, and availability is scarce when it comes to buying tickets from the official club sites. This is especially true if you are talking about English teams and games at big teams like Arsenal and Manchester United and at venues like the Emirates Stadium and Old Trafford.

Europa League - How It Works

Winning the UEFA Europa League is no simple ask. A victorious team will have to have fought through group and knockout stages to get to the Europa League final and then lift the trophy.

Participating teams include those who qualified from the start and those who have dropped into the competition from the UEFA Champions League. Some will also have to have to go through a preliminary knockout round.

The Europa League group stage sees 32 teams split into eight groups, with the team which finishes top securing safe passage to the Round of 16. The teams who finish second face off against those who spend third in the Champions League group stages in the knockout round play-offs.

The competition was further enhanced when UEFA decided to reward winners of the Europa League with progress to the Champions League for the next season, that began back in 2015.

This makes the Europa final even more than just a football match it's also a gateway to the immense riches that come from taking part in the Champions League.

Alaves came out in the second half like a team that has been hammered by coach Mané, With Javi Moreno, scoring twice in four minutes to make it 3-3. Robbie Fowler once again Liverpool the lead but Jordi Cruyff took the game to extra-time with an 88th-minute leveler.
