There was no happy ending for Man United, who had not lost a single game en route to the final but a single defeat to Tottenham took it all away from them.
The "miracles" that once came to Ruben Amorim's army to help them defeat Athletic Bilbao or Olympique Lyon, now cannot appear to help them make a miracle.
Bruno Fernandes attacks Tottenham's defense
It must be affirmed that Tottenham did not play better than Man United, even statistics show that they are the European champions with the lowest technical parameters in the past 15 years, with a ball possession rate of only 27%, only 115 passes and scored from the only shot on target in the match!
Goalkeeper Vicario had an excellent performance
If Man United field their strongest attacking lineup, Tottenham won't even be able to include captain Son Heung-min in the starting lineup, although they can still use the trio of Richarlison, Solanke and Johnson.
Man United started the game more impressively and strongly, creating some certain opportunities. Unfortunately, Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes both missed. Tottenham tried to regain the game and they created a turning point with a quality counter-attack.
Brennan Johnson scored the only goal for Tottenham
The shining moment that made Brennan Johnson history
In the 42nd minute, starting from Bruno Fernandes's failed pass in the middle of the field, Tottenham quickly attacked on the left wing. From Pape Sarr's cross, Johnson cut in and missed the ball in the first move, the ball hit defender Luke Shaw's hand and bounced back to the Tottenham striker.
On his second shot, Johnson still missed the center of the ball but still managed to bring a goal to Tottenham.
Van de Ven's goal line save
Leny Yoro's dangerous move
Throughout the second half, Man United went all out in attack. However, the "Red Devils" attacks were not sharp and could not penetrate Tottenham's defense led by goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Defender Van de Ven's save on the goal line in the 68th minute and Vicario's consecutive successful saves at the end of the match made Tottenham's victory even more meaningful.
Captain Son Heung-min ends drought with Tottenham
Winning 1-0 against rivals Man United, Tottenham officially won the Europa League 2024-2025. This is the first title of the North London team after 17 years of waiting, and also brings them many other rewards.
Tottenham secured Champions League qualification and a big enough bonus to give them the opportunity to push through a massive rebuild.
Tottenham won the historic "gamble"
Man United not only lost the match but also lost everything when going through the worst season in the club's history, no title and only ranked above the relegation group in the Premier League.
