« Tottenham » put an end to the 17-year period without a bowl and won the Europa League

The only goal fell in the 42nd minute, with Brenn Johnson recorded, although there were serious doubts as to whether Manchester United’s defender, Luke Shaw, did not divert Pape Sar’s center in his own door. By the end of the meeting, the Red Devils had two great opportunities to level, but first Mickey van de Veen cleared Rasmus Hoylund’s goal line, and in the added time, goalkeeper Vicario saved a shot with a show.

For Tottenham, the trophy is the first since 2008 when the League Cup was won, and Dimitar Berbatov scored one of the goals for the final 2-1 over Chelsea. The Spurs had not taken a European distinction since 1984 when they triumphed for the UEFA Cup. The manager Angor Postekoglu kept the tradition of always winning a cup in his second season at the head of the teams he leads, and the memorable evening for him coincided with his hundredth game at the head of Tottenham. Who may also be a penultimate to the Australian, who is stubbornly claimed to not remain in office after the end of the season – who is on Sunday for his team after the meeting against Aston Villa in the Premier League.

With the winning of the Europa League, the « spurs » also guaranteed participation in the basic phase of the Champions League, as well as a bonus of nearly 120 million euros for reaching the tournament of the rich. For the rival at Bilbao, Manchester United means that it will not participate in European tournaments only for the second time since 1990, when UEFA returned English clubs in tournaments after their unprecedented removal for five seasons due to the hooligan events of supporters and tragedy of Hazel.
