Sevilla angered by King of Spain snub

King Felipe VI of Spain will not attend the Europa League final between Sevilla and Liverpool, much to president Jose Castro's frustration.

Sevilla president Jose Castro has criticized the King of Spain for not showing his support for the Liga side and attending the Europa League final.

Unai Emery's side booked its place in next week's final last week with a 5-3 aggregate victory over Shakhtar Donetsk, keeping its dreams of three successive European titles intact.

The Spanish club will meet Liverpool on May 18 in Basel after the Premier League outfit brushed aside Villarreal 3-1 with a 3-0 second triumph.
