The only goal of the match was scored by Brennan Johnson, who, after a delicate touch, put the ball past goalkeeper Andre Onana late in the first half. From then on, the "Red Devils" could not find a way to equalize and eventually lost after 90 minutes of play.
"Every time you think things can't get any worse, they prove it," Keane said after the game. "They've been beaten all season. They've had a few lucky breaks in Europe this season, but not tonight. They just haven't played well, whether they're starting or subbing."
It was notable that United failed to register a shot on target until the final minute, when Luke Shaw headed the ball but failed to trouble the keeper. The lack of sharpness in front of goal was typical of a disappointing season for Ruben Amorim and his team.

Statistics show that Tottenham only had 3 shots in the whole match, had a possession rate of only 27.7% and made 115 passes throughout the match. This further highlights the problem of MU when the team has a lot of possession but does not create enough pressure on the opponent's goal.
Roy Keane admitted that United looked miserable when relying on Harry Maguire to find the net. The trio of Rasmus Hojlund, Mason Mount and Amad Diallo were a big disappointment when they started together. On the bench, Joshua Zirkzee and Alejandro Garnacho also made no difference when they came on in the second half.
MU entered the 2024/25 Europa League final with an impressive 14-match unbeaten streak. But the "Red Devils" suffered a cruel reality when they lost in the decisive match against Tottenham, thereby officially ending the season empty-handed and losing their place in the Champions League next season.
