As is always the case after every success, it is time to review the season. Sevilla FC completed their UEFA Europa League season on Friday, which was shorter than normal in terms of matches played due to the change in format, but they did play 12 matches in continental competition this season, with nine wins, two draws (both against Romanian side CFR Cluj), and just one defeat in Nicosia against APOEL, after qualification for the Round of 32 had been secured. 

Regarding individual statistics, bearing in mind that Lopetegui rotated his side regularly in the Group Stage, no one played in more than ten matches. The four who did make ten appearances were Bono, Gudelj, Joan Jordán and Franco Vázquez. Koundé and Munir round off the top 6 with nine appearances each. 

Bono, Gudelj, Joan Jordán and Franco Vázquez played in 10 of the 12 matches

The Moroccan goalkeeper, who was the hero in the final phase, also played in more minutes than anyone else, with 900 minutes in the 10 matches. Koundé's 810 minutes means he was in second place, ahead of Joan Jordán (752). The top 6 is completed by Gudelj (727), Diego Carlos (646) and Escudero (630). 

The goalscoring charts were dominated by one man for Sevilla. Although he did not score in the final four matches in Germany, Munir topped the charts with five goals in the Group Stage. De Jong's three goals in the final two matches were enough to place him second, alongside Dabbur, ahead of Franco Vázquez, Chicharito and En-Nesyri, who scored twice. Bryan Gil, Óliver Torres, Reguilón, Suso and Ocampos all scored once. 

Munir (5) scored the most goals in continental competition this season

Éver Banega was the man who set up the most goals, with four, one more than Jesús Navas, Munir and Dabbur. Ten players shared fifth and sixth place in this ranking. Gudelj had more completed passes than any other player with 744, ahead of Jordán (619), Koundé (616), Escudero (439), Sergi Gómez (413) and Éver Banega (365).

Regarding disciplinary records, Sevilla FC were not a dirty side, with zero red cards and just one player picking up more than two bookings - Diego Carlos with four. Joan Jordán and Gudelj were booked twice, while eleven players were booked once.
