Shakhtar Donetsk v Werder Bremen: The Sukru Saracoglu Stadium, Istanbul, home ground to Fenerbahce, will host the last Uefa Cup final before the competition is reborn as the Europa League next season

While Shakhtar may be the first Ukrainian side to triumph in Europe since the fall of the Soviet Union, Werder fans are hopeful of a win that will secure their first continental silverware since the Cup Winners' Cup 1992

Werder's main threat will come from Claudio Pizarro, who has 28 goals already this season, while Shakhtar boss Mircea Lucescu is a local hero, having guided both Galatasaray and Besiktas to the Turkish league title

Shakhtar fans will be putting their faith in Brazilian forward Jadson Rodrigues da Silva, whose performances have seen his side through the competition, including a Champions League hat-trick against FC Basel

Donetsk take the lead on 25 minutes as Luiz Adriano receives a 30-yard pass on the break and dinks the ball past Tim Wiese in the Bremen goal with great calm

Just as the Bremen fans begin to lose their voice, and Donetsk look like scoring at will, Andriy Pyatov spills a thumping free-kick from Ronaldo Naldo in to his own net to hand the German side an equaliser

Werder Bremen coach Thomas Schaaf can look confident, despite the absence of playmaker Diego, as their progress in this competition includes several wins coming from behind, including the semi-final against Hamburg

Torsten Frings' booking in the opening 45 minutes is the first of seven yellow cards shown as the play turns scrappy in the nervous second-half atmosphere

Wiese keeps his side in the game with a save on the stretch from a Jadson free-kick and Pyatov atones for his earlier error with an even better save from Pizarro's header, low to his right, sending the game in to extra-time

Shakhtar's Darijo Srna breaks down the Bremen right in the first half of extra-time, as he has so often tonight, and squares the ball to Jadson, whose soft side-foot squirms underneath the otherwise-faultless Wiese

The Brazilian's goal is enough, Werder Bremen have neither the guile or creativity to come back and Shakhtar Donetsk win the Uefa Cup

Srno, Shakhtar captain, lifts the Uefa Cup after the team's first ever European cup final, having knocked out Tottenham Hotspur and Dynamo Kiev, among others, along the way
