(The Post News)– Tottenham Hotspur has defeated Manchester United 1-0 at San Mamés in Bilbao to win their third UEFA Europa League championship.
Tottenham Hotspur had not won a major title in 17 years. Brennan Johnson scored the game’s only goal in the first half, giving Spurs the victory.
With this triumph, Tottenham tied Liverpool for the most Europa League victories. Tottenham’s success was largely attributed to manager Ange Postecoglou’s strategic strategy. His well-thought-out strategy and tactical discipline neutralised Manchester United’s offensive threats, resulting in a well-earned win.
An unforeseen complication ruined the post-match festivities—UEFA ran short of winner’s medals at the ceremony. Fans criticised the situation as “amateurish” on social media, and the scarcity led to a delay.
Tottenham’s lengthy trophy drought came to an end with this victory, which also guaranteed them a spot in the 2025–2026 UEFA Champions League. Furthermore, the team now has the chance to play the Champions League champions for the 2025 UEFA Super Cup.
A major turning point in Tottenham Hotspur’s history—their triumph in the 2025 UEFA Europa League final is evidence of their tenacity and strategic skill.
