LONDON (AP) - Sevilla and Espanyol will play in an all-Spanish UEFA Cup final. Sevilla, the tournament's defending champion, advanced Thursday by beating Osasuna 2-0 in the second leg of the semifinals and 2-1 on aggregate. Espanyol reached the last game by beating Werder Bremen 2-1 and 5-1 on aggregate.
The final will be played at Hampden Park in Glasgow, Scotland, on May 16, with Sevilla trying to become the first team since Real Madrid in 1986 to win back-to-back UEFA Cup titles.
Luis Fabiano gave Sevilla the lead in the 37th minute, collecting the ball at the edge of the area and beating two defenders before sliding the ball under Osasuna goalkeeper Ricardo Lopez. Renato scored the second in the 53rd by poking a cross from Daniel Alves past Ricardo.
