Good evening and welcome to Eurosport-Yahoo!'s live coverage of the all-Spanish Europa League final as Marcelo Bielsa's Athletic Bilbao take on Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid at the National Arena in Bucharest.

The final whistle goes at the National Stadium in Bucharest, and Atletico Madrid have won the Europa League for the second time in three years! A stunning double from Falcao and a third from Diego see Athletic Bilbao vanquished 3-0, and the Atletico celebrations begin! Thanks for joining us.

The ebullient Ibai unleashes a thunderous strike from 25 yards out as he beats Courtois, but it goes agonisingly over the crossbar!

Atletico keep the ball in their half as they look to run down the clock, and Athletic are a beaten side now. Diego is replaced by Koke.

The Athletic players look absolutely exhausted now as Simeone's side keep the ball on halfway.

Any lingering hope for Athletic has been effectively extinguished as Atletico keep the ball in their own half.

There are jubilant scenes as the Atletico subs pile on Diego, and he celebrates wildly!

GOAL!!!! DIEGO SCORES ATLETICO'S THIRD! It's game over as Diego is put through on goal, and he keeps his cool to beat Iraizoz with a clinical finish, and Muniain collapses in tears on halfway with his side beaten!

Toquero drives in a low cross from the right, but De Marcos misses his attempted kick at the back post and another chance goes begging.

Ibai Gomez has proved Bielsa's best change, and he continues to cause havoc in the final third with his jinking runs.

Again, Falcao picks up the ball from deep and charges down the left, and he would have thoroughly deserved that hat-trick.

Athletic continue to pile forward in their droves, but Atletico are defending obdurately and with real courage.

Falcao hits the post! The Colombian forward is denied his hat-trick as he beats Iraizoz with a fierce low drive from inside the Athletic box, but it rebounds off the near post!

Exceptional defending from Atletico as Godin and Miranda throw themselves at the ball to make crucial blocks - this is frantic stuff!

It's one-way traffic at the National Stadium in Bucharest, and half the stadium continue to whistle as Athletic keep the ball and attempt to create chances.

Susaeta fires a low shot towards the target, but it takes a deflection - fortunately for Atletico - off Gabi and away it goes for a corner.

Athletic continue to keep possession in the final third, but Atletico are resolute in holding their shape.

Suarez plants a very poor free kick straight into the base of the Athletic wall from 25 yards out, and that's a missed opportunity.

De Marcos will be left to rue that missed chance if his side do not recover from their two-goal deficit - he lost his composure completely there!

Gomez is causing a lot of problems in the final third, and he wriggles past two challenges before cutting the ball back for de Marcos, who fires wide!

Llorente knocks the ball down with a header inside the Atletico box, but Ibai Gomez's shot zips agonisingly over the crossbar with Courtois at full stretch!
