Thus, the Russian club finished the fight in European competition.
The first meeting in Seville ended with the score 2: 1 in favor of the hosts that in general the fans ” Zenith “was seen as a good result. Could have turned out better, especially when you consider that the St. Petersburg group scored first. But many do foretold the defeat of the Russian club, so minimal damage, and even scored on a foreign field goal rather encouraging. The more that just four players in the starting composition of the “Zenith”, passed the first match due to yellow cards – Hulk, Danny, Criscito and Smolnikov – able to return to base. On the other hand, for the same reason Petrograders lost on the return match Ryazantseva and, most importantly, a key central defender Garay.

At the “Seville” were also major changes in the composition, as compared to the match a week ago. Unai Emery replaced just three field players and goalkeeper – after an injury in the “frame” returned the main goalkeeper Beto. From the first minute on the field appeared and the main scorer, “Seville” Bakka, who last meeting started on the bench and scored almost immediately after it came off the bench.
At this time, the Colombian striker scored too quickly – already the sixth minute from the penalty spot. His earned Vitolo, which brought down in the penalty Luís Neto. This goal dramatically changes the situation. Now “Zenith” for the semi-finals had to score more than one goal, but three. Two goals were good too, but only to move the meeting into overtime. But it’s all on paper – in practice except Petrograders ball control for a long time did not show anything. And only in the end the inning began to create dangerous moments, the most memorable of which was hit Danny the post just before the break. But in general, the game masters in this segment is not impressed.
But the second half began very differently. Already in the 48th minute of the “Zenith” leveling the same account. Goal is a bit curious – Beta could not catch firmly simple like blow Shatova, released the ball from his hands, and then arrived just in time Rondon – 1: 1. This episode of the owners, of course, inspired. And moments at the “Seville” went one after the other. Fortunately, the Spanish goalkeeper clearly not up to the end to get in shape and continued to kink. First, he knocked the ball squarely in the chest oncoming Rondon – for good luck, “Seville” Ricochet turned harmless.

Well, for 72 minutes, Hulk said that Beta too far out of the gate, and filigree on the accuracy of long-range shot sent the ball just under the crossbar. Goal turned out beautiful, and stirred up the “Zenith” even more.
In the remainder of the St. Petersburg club attacked a lot and had an overwhelming advantage. But the hosts squandered their chance, and “Seville” almost the only serious point in the second half used brilliantly. Joker Spaniards became Kevin Gameiro, and re-worked replacement Unai Emery – Frenchman spent by the time on the field just ten minutes. With an average distance he hit and plunged past Lodygina “Peter” in the ringing silence. 2: 2 on 85 minutes meant for the “Zenith” sentence.
In the end a draw, which is equivalent to defeat. Russian clubs in the semi-finals of the Europa League this season will not be.
