Sevilla's Gonzalo Montiel made it a wrap after his missed spot kick was retaken, sending Patricio the wrong way to earn the Spanish team...
for the seventh time on Wednesday as they beat Jose Mourinho’s Roma 4-2 on penalties after the game ended 1-1 after 90 minutes and extra time. And it was Gonzalo Montiel who had the honor of scoring the winning penalty as he did for Argentina at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
In the 11th minute, Roma blew a scoring chance through Leonardo Spinazzola who got a one-on-one chance within 12 yards but was blocked by Bounou. However, Sevilla’s last action in the first half from Rakitic’s 25-yard shot hit woodwork to put the Italians in front by the end of the 45 minutes. But the relentless Spanish side made another effort five minutes later with Jesus Navas’ right cross that was sent into the net by Roma player Gianluca Mancini.
And in the 97th minute, Rui Patricio saved Suso’s shot, and Fernando, played wide afterward, to send the game to extra-time.
