West Ham’s first European knock-out tie in over 40 years ended in a narrow 1-0 defeat by serial Europa League winners Sevilla.

A second-half goal by Moroccan forward Munir, who was only in the starting line-up after Ivan Rakitic was injured in the warm-up, settled the first leg in the Spanish side’s favour.

But Hammers boss David Moyes will have seen enough to feel his side are capable of overturning a one-goal deficit at the London Stadium in a week’s time and prolonging their European adventure.

Relive all the action from the Europa League round of 16 first leg.

Half-time: Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

45+1 mins: Nothing to separate the teams after 45 minutes in Spain. It’s been a close and interesting affair with both teams creating chances.

West Ham should be in front though. Nikola Vlasic has a header saved and Michail Antonio should had turned the follow-up into the back of the net.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

42 mins: The match stopped for a minute or so as Yassine Bounou got some treatment. It looked like a problem with his ankle but he’s fine to play on. Will probably get another check up at half-time too.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

36 mins: Jesus Navas gets forward on the right side and combines well with Lucas Ocampos to create enough space for a cross. The ball comes over to the far side of the box where Ben Johnson and Youssef En-Nesyri come together. There’s a slight shove from Johnson and the Sevilla forward falls to ground looking for a penalty that he doesn’t get.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

33 mins: West Ham work the ball quickly down the right wing and give it to Vlasic. He brings the ball inside and rolls it onto his left foot before whipping a low, pacey effort narrowly wide of the near post!

Everytime Sevilla look like they’re getting a dominant foothold in the game, West Ham sweep forward and almost score. It’s very impressive from the visitors.

Munir darts in from the right and lifts the ball into the penalty area. En-Nesyri wins it in the air and nods the ball towards the back post but Areola leaps across and smothers it.

Sevilla 0 - 0 West Ham

24 mins: West Ham are well drilled. They’ve got a solid shape to their play and are moving over the pitch as a unit. It’s not easy for Sevilla to play through them and the home side resort to a long cross field ball that heads straight out for a goal kick.
