West Ham
West Ham became the author of one of the sensations in the 1/8 finals. The London club stopped Sevilla, the most successful team in the history of the Europa League.
Both matches ended with a score of 1:0 – the teams exchanged home wins in regular time. West Ham put the squeeze on Sevilla in overtime of the London meeting thanks to Andriy Yarmolenko’s goal.
Shortly thereafter, West Ham lost to Tottenham, but it was hard to expect anything else from David Moyes’ team after an incredibly grueling match against the Spaniards.

Last Sunday, West Ham scored a 2-1 home win over Everton, thanks to which they still maintain a good chance of finishing in the top 4 of the Premier League.
West Ham have suffered only three defeats in their previous 15 matches at home.
Lyon
Lyon also played much better than expected in the previous stage of the tournament. The French went through a strong Porto.
At the same time, the key was the victory of Lyon on the field of the Portuguese. The return match ended in a draw 1:1.
