Spurs Stun Utd To Win Europa League, End 40-Year Trophy Drought

Thursday May 22, 2025|

Tottenham Hotspur has emerged victorious in the UEFA Europa League 2024/25 final, defeating Manchester United 1-0 thanks to Brennan Johnson’s decisive goal.

This win marks a historic moment for the club, ending their trophy drought since 2008.

Victory means under-fire head coach Ange Postecoglou has fulfilled a promise to deliver silverware in his second season at Spurs.

Postecoglou, who said he would “never be a clown” in his pre-match address, brought smiles and unbridled joy to the faces of the 15,000 official, and many unofficial, Tottenham fans in Bilbao’s San Mames Stadium.

Victory may not save Postecoglou from a Spurs exit in the coming weeks. But the Australian will leave as a hero after joining Bill Nicholson and Keith Burkinshaw in winning a European trophy with the north London giants.
