He turned to coaching, working with local amateur sides and gaining notoriety after being photographed shouting instructions at his team from up a tree having been refused entry to the ground. • Following a spell coaching Argentina de Rosario, the reserve team of former club Newell's, his first professional job came in Peru in 2002 with Juan Aurich. He remained in Peru with Sport Boys before leading Coronel Bolognesi into their first international tournament – the Copa Sudamericana – in 2006. • After a disappointing year at Sporting Cristal, Sampaoli left Peru to reinvigorate his career with O'Higgins in Chile, spending three years with the Rancagua outfit. He spent time with Emelec in Ecuador but it was a 2011 move to Universidad de Chile that established his name. • It was here where the Argentinian cemented his reputation as one of South America's best coaches. His attacking, attractive style brought back-to-back league titles in addition to the Copa Sudamericana, and he also reached the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores. • Appointed Chile manager in 2012 and continued to impose his aesthetically-pleasing style at the highest level. Helped knock Spain out of the 2014 FIFA World Cup group stage before succumbing to Brazil on penalties in the round of 16. He led the Roja to their first piece of silverware 12 months later with a Copa América final victory over his native Argentina. Left shortly afterwards and appointed Sevilla coach in summer 2016, coming within seconds of winning the UEFA Super Cup on his competitive debut only to be denied by Real Madrid. Ivaylo Petev Date of birth: 9 July 1975 Nationality: Bulgarian Playing career: PFC Litex Lovech (twice), PFC Olympic Teteven (loan), PFC Spartak Varna (loan), PFC Cherno More Varna, PFC Spartak Varna, PFC Rodopa Smolyan, PFC Dunav Ruse, PFC Marek Dupnista, FC Trikala, PFC Lyubimets 2007, PFC Etar 1924 Coaching career: PFC Lyubimets 2007, PFC Ludogorets Razgard, AEL Limassol FC, Bulgaria, GNK Dinamo Zagreb • Midfielder Petev's best days were at Litex Lovech in the late 90s, when he was part of the squad that won the league in 1998 and 1999. In 2001 he lifted the Bulgarian Cup with Litex. • In 2009 he became player-coach of second division Lyubimets; a year later he moved to Razgrad to start the Ludogorets project with club owner Kiril Domuschiev. In 2011 he guided the team to promotion to the Bulgarian top flight. • In 2012 the newcomers won a historic domestic double in their first top division campaign, then added the Bulgarian Super Cup. In 2013 Petev's Ludogorets retained the domestic title, but in the summer he was sacked after the first leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifying tie against ŠK Slovan Bratislava. • In October 2013 Petev took over Cypriot side AEL, steering them to second place that season. • In November 2014 he parted ways with AEL and a month later assumed the Bulgarian national team helm following the dismissal of Luboslav Penev. Missed out on UEFA EURO 2016 and in September 2016 stepped down to take on a new challenge at Dinamo Zagreb. 2 Sevilla FC - GNK Dinamo Zagreb Wednesday 2 November 2016 - 20.45CET (20.45 local time) Match press kit Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán, Seville Legend ALL-TIME STATISTICS The all-time record of the competing clubs in UEFA club competition.
