Europa League final: Spurs 1 Man Utd 0 – Tottenham’s 17-year wait for a trophy ends in Bilbao
Tottenham Hotspur won the 2025 Europa League final in Bilbao on Wednesday night, defeating Manchester United 1-0. It’s a result that not only rescues Spurs’ season but also grants them entry into next season’s Champions League.Tottenham and United are 17th and 16th respectively in the Premier League, and for most of the first half they played like it, both sides displaying a painful lack of quality. Even the first goal, when it came, was befitting of a scrappy game — Brennan Johnson was credited with it, even though it span into the net via Luke Shaw’s arm.AdvertisementThere was not a significant increase in quality after the break, although United ratcheted up the intensity as they chased the game. But Spurs, helped by an incredible goalline clearance from Micky van de Ven and a late, late save from Guglielmo Vicario, held […]

Enfim, o Tottenham pode gritar "é campeão!". Depois de 17 anos, o clube de Londres voltou a conquistar um título ao superar o Manchester United por 1 a 0 e conquistar a Europa League. O gol foi marcado pelo atacante Brennan Johnson, de 23 anos. A última vez que o Tottenham havia sido campeão foi na temporada 2007/2008, quando conquistou a Copa da Liga Inglesa.
