Kevin Gameiro scored twice as Sevilla once again saved their best form for the Europa League and stormed into their third straight final with a 3-1 second-leg win over Shakhtar Donetsk.
Gameiro picked up where he left off after grabbing a late equaliser in the first leg last week, firing a ninth-minute opener at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan to set his side on course for a 5-3 aggregate win.
Shakhtar briefly drew level through Brazilian Marlos, but Gameiro's second and a third for Mariano ensured the extraordinary continental run of Unai Emery's side would continue.
The form guide had suggested Shakhtar had a shot at victory with Sevilla limping into the game on the back of an indifferent 1-0 loss at Espanyol last weekend, while the visitors thrashed domestic rivals Dynamo Kiev 3-0.
But as two consecutive Europa League crowns prove, Sevilla are a different proposition in Europe and it did not take them long to grab the lead on the night when Gameiro seized on a mistake by Maksim Malyshev to fire home.
