Tottenham Hotspur emerged victorious in the Europa League final on Wednesday night, securing a narrow 1-0 triumph over Manchester United.
With both sides hoping to salvage a difficult season by claiming silverware and a spot in next year’s UEFA Champions League, the high-stakes clash in Bilbao was tightly contested.
The decisive moment came in the first half, when Brennan Johnson reacted quickest to a loose ball in the penalty area, poking it past United goalkeeper Andre Onana to give Spurs the lead.
Despite Manchester United’s efforts to find an equaliser, Tottenham held firm to claim their first Europa League crown and book their place in Europe’s premier club competition next season.
