Europe Final: The story of Tottenham Beat Man United in Bilbau

The finals of their nature are winners take all jobs, but can barely need a need for the trophy the most beautiful feeling two teams competing for it.

Both Manchester United and Tottenham They endured and did not enjoy the 2024/25 season, and Europa League afforded one of them the last opportunity to put all the pain in him behind them.

Would Ange’s promises in the second season “achieve?

The famous old saying – the winner of the loot, my speedy-could not be more prone before it starts.

Ange Postecoglou knew he always won the trophy in his second season, and on his 100. games in charge of Tottenham Hotspur, it would not be a better time to fulfill that promise.

Since Tottenham won 53% of the matches this season, with Cristiano Romero and Micky Van de Venu at the beginning of XI (9/17), but not to be surprised, whether it was a huge roar from Spurs Stadium San Mames.

Standing on the road was the united composition that were the only parties that were still undefeated in the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League this season (P14 W9 D5).

Tension clearly see in the opening 15 minutes

Six players at the age of 23 triggered the match (Yoro, I will, Hojlund, BeingSarr & Diallo), and in 19. years and 189 days, Leny Yoro became the second youngest player who started in United European Final after Brian Kidd (at 19. Birthday) in the European Cup in 1968. years.

Although no clear chances presented in the opening for 15 minutes, Spurs managed to get two shots in spite of the uprising of the red devils (63.9% to 36.1%).

The North Londonders seemed to be more likely to be done because both parties continued to feel their way in the match, however, was an offense of Amad Diallo who was the first half.

With the palpable tension, it was a surprise to see such a game with free flow, then start developing.

Tottenham on top in the first half without worrying onan

The three touches of Richarlison was played in the box 20 minutes ago, and the urgency of the Brazilian and the accuracy of 100% of their teammates – including three Spurs back four – gave the platform attacker to offer their best work.

On the other end, Bruno Fernandes“Efforts was the first shot at the target in the match and its 15. on the target in the Europa League this season, more than any other conjunction.

Ten approvals from united with half an hour would play that the lilies were well at the top at that point, and although the spurs remained on the front foot, Andre Onana did not make savings.

That everything changed before half when a keeper prone to mistakes can’t keep the ball after skyslops in a box with six yard that ended with the ball Luke Shawhand and Brennan Johnson before nesting in the network.

With 70% in the possession of 15 minutes he leads to a break, and Bruno had three shots in the goal – most of each player in the first half – United will feel that Tottenham felt. Especially as Postecoglou’s XI still failed to shoot at the target.

United Has Hard Pressed for Equalizer After Half

Ruben Amorim It is clear that his work has decreased halfway to galvanize their detachment.

However, with several resolutions (13 to five) in the first half, multiple duels (64.9% to 35.1%), more possession, more passages and great accuracy, was not awful – but the Portuguese could revoke his players.

Red devils have certainly confiscated the initiative in opening the second half, and Amad looks lively again if not overly effective.

Storing the North London on the back leg seemed to be a clear game plan, and Tottenham is certainly unable to go to their game immediately after the break.

The question left is to get anywhere for all their defense and the middle near the naked Spurs until the heading of Naked Rasmus Hojlunda has clearly cleaned from Micky Van de Vely 66 minutes.

Garnacho quickly made a difference

Change was obviously necessary for red devils, so there was something surprise that Ruben Amorim took up to 71. Minutes to bring Joshua Zirkzee And Alejandro Garnacho.

Within two minutes, considering that this marker won and received a shot on target as a united pressure, and their domination was self-evident thanks to their 421 pass attempts (compared to 169 passes) with 10 minutes to play.

Although Tottenham defended resolutely, each united player deserved a loan to put in every last drop of effort to try to return to the game. Luke Shaw and Andre Onana aside, one other player had at least one touch in the Spurs box.

If more perspective is needed, five minutes remained from the match, Tottenham did not try the shot from Brennan Johnson opens in 42. minute. Only three total was the lowest in one match in 24/2015 Europa League and had only one touch in the united frame in the second half.

Should be united sign Canoe From Spurs when they had a chance?

Maybe when you unite looking where the game is won and lost, I can specify the loss of possession in 139 separate opportunities as potential issues that will be resolved and, ultimately, not no forefront of the ball to the side of the network.

When Harry Kane left Spurs, he was very connected by moving to Old Trafford, of course, but the club would not be financially pushed by the boat. As the red devils could do with their extraordinary possibility of achieving goals on Wednesday night.

As a spectacle, the truth is that it was not the best final, but when two teams competed in it 16. and 17. in their league, it should not happen as a surprise.

Tottenham and Ange Postecoglou will not take care of that after winning their first trophy of any description in 17 years and their first European trophy in four decades, although the following for Ruben Amorim happens.
