Tottenham v Man United LIVE: Europa League final result and reaction as Spurs win dismal game

Ange Postecloglou dared to say it, and his team have gone and done it. Glory.

He has won that trophy in his second season, and delivered Tottenham Hotspur’s first trophy in 17 years. They can forget all of the noise of the season.

That is now for Manchester United, who have to face up to questions that are now even more severe. None of this has worked.

It could be argued that the nature of decisive Luke Shaw own goal was typical of the game, and their seasons, but Spurs will only remember the glory.

United would like to forget, but can’t. They have an uncertain future. Spurs have a moment that will last forever.

Wrapped in a Welsh flag Brennan Johnson spoke to TNT Sports after the match.

His goal was the decisive moment in the game and he says he can’t describe the feeling of winning a major trophy.

The TNT Sports pundit and former Tottenham player said:

“Incredible, I’ve got no nails left. It’s fantastic for the club but it wasn’t a classic game by any meas.

“Spurs won it, cup finals are about winning games and they got over the line by hook or by crook. It’s just a wonderful night for those fans around the stadium.”

Tottenham Hotspur are the Europa League champions and end a 17-year wait for a major trophy.

Brennan Johnson’s first half goal was the difference between the teams in a low quality affair.

Ange Postecoglou got his tactics spot on throughout the evening and has led Spurs to some silverware.

90+9 mins: The full-time whistle goes in Bilbao.

Tottenham have done it, they are the Europa League champions in 2025.

Ange Postecoglou wins a trophy in his second year again. They have salvation after 17 years and are into the Champions League next year.

A terrible season ends in a fine victory. Brennan Johnson is the hero of the night.

Dalot swings a cross in from the right and picks out Shaw who powers a header at goal only for Vicario to leap to the right and palm it away!

90+5 mins: Leny Yoro takes a shot from range and lifts it well over the crossbar.

Time is running away from Manchester United, Tottenham are almost there.

90+3 mins: Dalot floats a cross into the box for Maguire who wins the header but can’t direct his effort at goal.

The celebrations have started from the Tottenham fans, they think this game is over.

90 mins: Kobbie Mainoo replaces Patrick Dorgu as Spurs throw a bunch of fresh legs on the pitch.

There’s going to be seven minutes of stoppage time to play.

That’s plenty of time for Man Utd to score.

87 mins: Harry Maguire is now playing up front for Man Utd.

This tactic worked in previous rounds. Can United force an equaliser?
