Tammy Abraham continued his impressive season by rising higher than everyone else to score his ninth goal in 12 Conference League matches. IT HAD TO BE TAMMY.

#UECL pic.twitter.com/NuztuBcNF7 May 5, 2022 May 25 - the date for all our diaries! But all focus is on the task at hand of staying in fifth place and winning the Conference League. 💪— AS Roma English (@ASRomaEN) #ASRoma #UECL pic.twitter.com/3M4neZxEin May 5, 2022 So if they were to win the tournament, there may be a spot up for grabs in Europa League. Roma are fifth in Serie A but Lazio, Fiorentina, and Atalanta are all within three points of Mourinho's side, they may need the title to ensure that they aren't in the Conference League again next season. "The fans won it for before the game started. It was a disappointing night in France as Dimitri Payet had to be subbed out only 33 minutes into the match with an injury. With Fiorentina on the schedule for Monday, Roma will need their forward at his best in Serie A. Abraham would have another chance after the half but the ball pinged around the box before falling to Kasper Schmeichel, who was able to come out with the save in the end. The inaugural finalists for the Europa Conference League are set: Roma will face Feyenoord for the trophy.. Roma defeated Leicester City, 1-0, to win 2-1 on aggregate and Marseille drew, 0-0, with Feyenoord as the Dutch side advanced 3-2 on aggregate.

Tammy Abraham Fires Jose Mourinho's Roma Into First Ever Europa ... (Sports Illustrated)

Jose Mourinho remains on course to become the first manager to win the UEFA Europa Conference League after his Roma side beat Leicester in their semi-final.

That proved to be enough to give Roma a 1-0 win on the night and a 2-1 victory on aggregate. Mourinho has not spoken too kindly about Europe's third-tier competition. He said last week that Roma vs Leicester was a fixture that was "too good to be Conference League".

Roma's 'sense of family' key to reaching Europa Conference League ... (ESPN)

Jose Mourinho said the "sense of family" between his AS Roma club and their supporters was the key to reaching the Europa Conference League final.

"This is a giant club without the trophy room in relation to the social dimension of the club," Mourinho said. But it's been a growth process," Roma defender Gianluca Mancini said. Abraham, the 24-year-old forward whom Mourinho convinced Roma to spend €40 million ($44 million) on in August, has been decisive all season. "But in terms of the way we've created a family atmosphere here, it makes me feel special. "Over the years I've become less egocentric and more like a father," Mourinho said. That is our greatest achievement, this empathy and sense of family we have created with the fans."

Roma 1-0 Leicester (2-1 agg): Tammy Abraham's header knocks ... (Daily Mail)

Leicester City crashed out the Europa League Conference semi-finals to Roma · Tammy Abraham was Roma's hero with his decisive header on 11 minutes ...

The 24-year-old is a force of nature in this form and has a deep emotional connection with the Roma fans. The visitors' wide men Ademola Lookman and Harvey Barnes had been ineffective before the break and it was no surprise to see both taken off at half-time. 'With the difference in size, it was always going to be difficult for Ricardo,' admitted Foxes defender Jonny Evans. Sadly for the Foxes, they did not heed them. They had five players who were big threats from set-pieces so there was always going to be a mismatch and it came to Ricardo Pereira marking Tammy.' It has been a problem all season and Abraham scored when unmarked at a corner. 'I shed a tear at full-time for everyone who loves the club,' Mourinho said. With Jamie Vardy at his sharpest, things would surely have been different. Vardy was isolated in the first half and appeared rusty - no surprise for a player who has spent much of 2022 on the sidelines due to injury. Instead, Abraham did everything Vardy usually does - hassling defenders, spinning into space at speed and combining with his fellow attackers. I've made a small contribution to that.' 'I've been lucky enough to be in more prestigious finals but this made me feel very special.

Tammy Abraham grabbed the winner as AS Roma booked a place in the inaugural final of the UEFA Conference League with a 1-0 victory over Leicester City.

05’ – LEICESTER CITY PENALTY APPEAL! Roma look uncomfortable defending a left-wing corner that sees Fofana fall to the floor. He just pips Chris Smalling who was imperious at the back as Roma kept the door firmly shut to deny Leicester any significant chances of note. Mourinho is the first manager to reach the final of a major European competition with four different clubs, having done so with Porto (UEFA Cup & Champions League), Inter (Champions League), Man Utd (Europa League) and now Roma (Europa Conference League). AS Roma reached the final of a European competition for the first time since the UEFA Cup 1990-91, when in the semi-final they eliminated Brondby IF, whose goalkeeper was Peter Schmeichel, father of the actual Leicester goalkeeper. Subs: Amartey 6, Iheanacho 6, Castagne 6, Perez 6. Tammy Abraham grabbed the winner as AS Roma booked a place in the inaugural final of the UEFA Conference League with a 1-0 victory over Leicester City.

Feyenoord booked their place in the Europa Conference League final in Tirana with a 3-2 win over Marseille on aggregate.

Jahanbahksh, who has just entered the fray, plays in a brilliant through ball for Dessers in behind, and the striker is in on goal. He then makes a run across the area to try and create an angle for himself to shoot, but his effort from 10 yards out is straight at Marciano! However, a perfect sliding challenge from Peres is just enough to take the ball off the forward in the nick of time! 34’ - CHANCE FOR MARSEILLE! - Milik almost scores with his first touch! 30’ - PAYET CANNOT CONTINUE! - Dimitri Payet goes down without any contact and it looks like he has an issue with his calf. However, OM were then dealt a blow after half an hour, as Dimitri Payet was forced off with a calf injury.

Why everybody was wrong about the Europa Conference League (FourFourTwo)

UEFA's ugly sprog? Don't believe it for a second, writes FFT's Joe Brewin, as Roma end Leicester's European final dreams at a thunderous Stadio Olimpico.

I’m not in the Champions League or the Europa League – I’m in this and I’m in it to win it. Ultimately, when you’re not in the Champions League itself, how much does it matter exactly what’s at stake when there’s another prize up for grabs? Most importantly, it gave more of the continent’s clubs a vital opportunity to make their seasons mean something. Generally speaking, the group stage was drab – as it is in the majority of UEFA competitions, with jeopardy at a relative low. It was particularly loud, it was proud – and for Leicester, it was all too much to handle. Fifteen days out from this Europa Conference League semi-final second leg, 100,000 Giallorossi fans were queuing to buy tickets online, in the hope of seeing their side reach a first European final since 1991.

UEFA Europa Conference League final: Roma vs Feyenoord (UEFA.com)

Roma are taking on Feyenoord in the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League final at Tirana's National Arena; get to know the two contenders.

Win the UEFA Europa Conference League and they will be the first and only side to have had their hands on all three of the current major UEFA men's club trophies. He has wildly exceeded expectations in taking the club to the final. Feyenoord are unbeaten in the tournament proper, with eight wins and four draws. Quick on the uptake and pacy as well, Dessers has shown he can deliver when it really counts. He is both a serial winner and an expert in dealing with pressure at the highest level. The aim is to get Nicolò Zaniolo and Lorenzo Pellegrini in space and Abraham one-on-one with the keeper.

Meanwhile, Feyenoord are through to their first European final in two decades after holding Marseille to a 0-0 draw in France.

“This is a giant club without the trophy room in relation to the social dimension of the club. The win was for them and my team. Hopefully we can go all the way.” The final against Roma will be their 19th game in the competition this season and they will be aiming to win their fourth European trophy. The first Dutch club to win the European Cup when they beat Celtic 2-1 in the 1970 final, they then won the Uefa Cup in 1974 and again in 2002 when they defeated Borussia Dortmund 3-2 in their own De Kuip stadium. The Dutch club made good their victory in the first leg last week in Rotterdam to set up a clash with Jose Mourinho’s Roma in the inaugural final of the new third-tier European competition.
