West Ham boss David Moyes says Sevilla saw their best football last night.
A 2-0 win saw West Ham reach the Europa League quarterfinals.
Moyes said, MI just kept my arms in the air after the second goal because I was so pleased and so proud of how the players performed.
"I'm really pleased at the crowd, they had to stay [with us] right to the end and we got the goal in the last few minutes, but it was deserved.
"It was deserved throughout, we kept at them all night, we never realty really let them away with anything.
"We kept the pressure on as much as we could and we mustn't forget that they are second in La Liga. Atletico Madrid beat Manchester United, Villarreal beat Juventus, so don't underestimate the quality of the Spanish sides, especially Sevilla who continually win this competition and are really difficult to play against.
"We set the tone early – I thought the opening 20 minutes was as good as we've played.
"That period came without any end product or chances, but then Mick had a really good chance and there were moments when we didn't do the final moment well, and I've been calling out for better quality – then we stood up a ball to the back post and Tomáš came and heads one in, which was a brilliant goal.
"That got our foot in the door and said it was game on. I thought they came back into it in the second half of the first half and we had to say to ourselves, 'Look we're in a really good position here, we can try to go on and get something'.
"We were really close to winning it in normal time as well."
