Hoping for some engagement and interaction The Sun revived some images from last season’s Europa League Final and asked for memories.

Would it be Ryan Kent’s 88th minute sitter, elderly and disabled bears forced into drinking toilet water or Aaron Ramsey’s missed penalty that came to mind?

Celtic fans were all over it as the 10th best team in Germany saved Scotland from a nightmare summer of celebrations. The furniture in George Square was equally relieved.

Each round had brought around an unlikely set of circumstances as the side going backwards in the SPFL Premiership somehow made it through four knock-out rounds to reach Seville.

Borussia Dortmund and RB Leiplzig qualified for the Champions League through their Bundesliga placing, Eintracht were stuck in mid-table with nothing of a recent European pedigree.

In footballing terms it was probably the worst ever European final but all is well that ends well with Kevin Trapp and Rafael Borre the herous as Kent, Ramsey, Tavpen and the Greatest Midfielder on Earth trooped home with another losers medal for their collections.
