Ukrainian winger Andriy Yarmolenko's extra-time goal earned West Ham United a 2-0 win over Sevilla on Thursday and took the English side into the Europa League quarter-finals.
Yarmolenko had been granted compassionate leave after Russia's invasion of Ukraine and missed West Ham's 1-0 loss in the first leg in Spain due to illness, but he reacted sharply to send the London club into a European quarter-final for the first time since 1981.
Tomas Soucek had headed in Michail Antonio's cross at the far post to put West Ham in front five minutes before half-time and the teams finished deadlocked at 1-1 on aggregate after 90 minutes.
Yarmolenko, on only his second game back from compassionate leave amid the invasion of his home country, popped up to turn a rebound home and secure the most famous of Hammers wins.
