With 16 minutes remaining in Friday's Europa League final, a Sevilla free kick was half-cleared. Diego Carlos, with his back to goal and his right thigh heavily strapped, plunged backwards and hooked the ball over his shoulder. It was heading wide, but Inter Milan's Romelu Lukaku instinctively flicked out a foot and, having earlier scored in his 11th straight Europa League game, decided the destination of this season's title with a luckless moment. To make it worse for Inter and Lukaku, Diego Carlos should have been sent off after three minutes for his takedown of the Belgian striker.
Not that Sevilla would care.
