Live Tottenham – Man. United: The Battle of the First European Trophy and Crazy in Bilbau. Santa forced fans

Today from 9pm the grand finals of the Europa League play Tottenham and Manchester United. The English finals are held in Bilbau, at San Mamés Stadium. On the eve of the San Sebastián match, there were unfortunate scenes in which hooligan groups clashed. Two groups of fans first began to insult, and then the conflict escalated. Fist and tables began to fly, and the whole event was recorded by the residents of the street where a fight took place. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured because the police quickly arrived at the scene and re -established their turn, and an ambulance came that took care of the slightly injured.

The match will be met with two teams that play historically bad in home championships this season. It sounds a bit incredible that the Tottenham and Manchester United in the Premier League are weaker only clubs that were promoted from the Championship last season.

The Spurs are ranked 17th. The first above the relegation zone, with 38 points, while the « Red Devils » have more points. The winning of the Europa League could save the season with both teams, so the stake in tonight’s finals is extremely large. There is a huge pressure on both coaches. Ruben Amorim He arrived in United at the beginning of the year, but failed to reverse a series of bad results for replacing Erika Ten Haga, indeed, he further deepened his crisis.

There is no better situation either Ange Postecoglou. The Australian of Greek descent has been on the Spurs bench for two years, and although the northern London’s mandate began promising, he failed to achieve the expected results in the second season. The owner of Spurs Daniel Levy is known for the fast -paced shift of a coach, nor Jim Ratcliffe In United, he did not show particular patience to coaches. The defeat in tonight’s match for amomes or postecoglou would probably be crucial.

When it comes to trophies, despite the disappointing results in recent years, United stands much better than today’s opponent. If we do not count the Audi Cup (trophy for the competition in summer friendly matches), which Tottenham won in 2019, the Spurs have been waiting for a real big trophy since 2008 when they won the League Cup. In European competitions, they twice won the UEFA Cup (forerunner of the Europa League): first in 1972 and the second in 1984.

United won the last big trophy last year, when he beat City at the FA Cup in the FA Cup. They also have two Europa League trophies in their showcases. They won the first in 1992 and the second in 2017.

In tonight’s game, as well as during most of the season, Postecoglou has problems with injuries. Will not be able to count on Lucas Bergvala. Dejana KuluševskyWho,, James Maddison. Dana Scarletta and Team Werner. The list of injured with United is much shorter, so they will enter the match without a stopper Matthis de Ligta and Lisandra Marchneza.
