Roma defender Diego Llorente took aim at ref Anthony Taylor after the Europa League final defeat to Sevilla.

Roma lost on penalties in Budapest on Wednesday night.

Llorente said: It is a very sad day for all Roma supporters, we are very sorry but we have given everything. We have seen the episode of the possible penalty, the assistant saw it too.

"The VAR usually calls back, this time not.

Today all the dubious episodes, yellow cards, the referee whistled in favor of Sevilla. Surprising, because he is an international referee who has great reputation."
