BERLIN, May 3 (Xinhua) -- Espanyol of Spain beat 10-man Werder Bremen of
Germany 2-1 on Thursday to ensure an all-Spanish UEFA Cup final with a 5-1
aggregate success.
In the final, they will face Primera Liga rivals Sevilla at Hampden Park,
Glasgow on May 16.
Werder, who lost 3-0 in Barcelona in the first leg, scored first when Hugo
Almeida slammed home a long-range strike in the fourth minute.
However, their key striker Miroslav Klose was dismissed with less than 20
minutes on the clock for a second yellow card.
Espanyol, the beaten UEFA Cup finalists in 1988, equalised through Ferran
Corominas five minutes after the break and sealed victory when Mari Lacruz
headed in from a corner just past the hour mark.
"The referee's decision was hard to understand," said Werder coach Thomas
Schaaf.
"The players were still fantastic, and they tried everything, but after
3-0 in the first leg and with a man down from the 20th minute it was all
over."
