Eintracht Frankfurt won the Europa League final after holding its nerve to beat Rangers 5-4 in a clinical penalty shootout to claim its first European trophy in 42 years.

The match finished 1-1 after 90 minutes and extra time, and Daichi Kamada and four other Eintracht players all scored from the spot, with only Rangers' Aaron Ramsey off target.

Former Japan captain Makoto Hasebe came off the bench for Frankfurt in the 58th minute, and the win marked the first time in 20 years a team consisting of one or more players from Japan won European club soccer's second-tier competition. Dutch club Feyenoord, featuring Shinji Ono, won the UEFA Cup in 2002. The UEFA Cup was renamed the Europa League in the 2009-2010 season.
