LONDON (Reuters):

ON-LOAN striker Roberto Soldado gave Osasuna a narrow lead with the only goal against holders Sevilla while Espanyol moved to the brink of an all-Spanish UEFA Cup final after demolishing Werder Bremen 3-0 yesterday.

Osasuna, the only one of the semi-finalists not to have played in, or won, a UEFA final, will take a 1-0 lead to Andalucia next week thanks to Soldado's 55th-minute goal in Pamplona.
