Why Son doesn't have a Europa League medal

Son did not have a championship medal in the celebration.

"We regret that there were not enough medals to present to the entire Tottenham team at the ceremony due to an unforeseen difference in the number of players. More members, including injured players, attended the ceremony than originally planned. We immediately delivered the missing medals to the champions' dressing room, with our most sincere apologies."

One of the notable images was midfielder James Maddison, who was absent due to injury, wearing a full match kit and going up to the podium to receive his medal, while captain Son Heung-min did not have his own medal when lifting the cup.

Sharing with CBS Sports , Maddison revealed: "They said I had to wear the competition kit to receive the medal. It feels special. Even though I couldn't play, this victory makes all the pain of injury worth it. This is a great achievement and above all, happiness for the fans."

At San Mames, Brennan Johnson's only goal in the 42nd minute helped Tottenham end their title drought that had lasted since 2008, and also secured a ticket to the 2025/26 Champions League qualifying round for the North London team, despite only finishing 17th in the Premier League.
