Sevilla, looking to become the first club to win the Europa League three years running, is marching on.
In the 160th meeting between Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao in all competitions, the Andalusian club required a penalty shootout to book its place in the Europa League's semi-finals after 210 minutes of football left the two sides level at 3-3 on aggregate with two away goals apiece.
Joining Sevilla in the semi-finals are Shakhtar Donetsk, Villarreal, and Braga, and the four clubs will be pitted into two ties on Friday.
