The win marks Tottenham’s third Europa League title
Tottenham Hotspur clinched the 2024/25 UEFA Europa League title, defeating Manchester United 1-0 in the final at San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao, Spain.
Brennan Johnson scored the decisive goal in the 42nd minute, with the ball deflecting off United’s Luke Shaw, securing Tottenham’s first trophy since 2008 and their first European honour since 1984.
Despite a strong second-half push from Manchester United, a crucial goal-line clearance by Micky van de Ven and a stoppage-time save by goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario preserved Spurs’ lead.
Tottenham’s victory, under manager Ange Postecoglou, earned them qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League, despite their 17th-place finish in the Premier League. Manchester United, who finished 16th domestically, will miss out on European football next season.
The win marks Tottenham’s third Europa League title, following successes in 1971-72 and 1983-84, while United, winners in 2016-17, fell short in their bid for a second title.
