UECL: Roma and Feyenoord reach final
The 2022 Europa Conference League Final will be the final match of the first season of Europe's newest club football tournament organised by UEFA.
It will be played on 25 May 2022 at the Arena Kombëtare in Tirana, Albania between Roma and Feyenoord.
Let's have a look at how both teams reached the final.
Roma 1 - 0 Leicester City (Aggregate 2-1)
Leicester City missed out on a place in the final after losing 1-0 at Roma. Tammy Abraham's powerful header for the home side was the difference as Leicester struggled to make a decent impact at the Stadio Olimpico.
The striker's goal was enough to prevent Leicester from reaching a first European final after the first leg finished 1-1. The Roma manager was clearly emotional after the game.

Marseille 0 - 0 Feyenoord (Aggregate 2-3)
Feyenoord are through to a Europa Conference League final against Roma after holding Marseille 0-0 at the Stade Velodrome to advance 3-2 on aggregate.
Marseille, who lost Dimitri Payet to injury in the first half, created several chances but they were unable to find a breakthrough as Feyenoord secured their first European final appearance since winning the UEFA Cup in 2002.
