The seventeenth of the English Premier League won against the sixteenth and thus qualified for the football champions League: Tottenham brought a catastrophic season to a conciliatory end with the 1-0 final of the Europa League against Manchester United. Kevin Danso helped in Bilbao: The ÖFB team player was substituted in the 78th minute.
The gate passed to the season of the two clubs: Brennan Johnson’s cross was used by Pape Matar Sarr, but the Welsh missed the ball and only changed the flank trajectory with the calf. The ball jumped into the corner (42nd) from the upper arm of the Manchester defender Luke Shaw. The goal was still awarded Johnson – otherwise the Londoners would have even won the opposing goal without their own shot.
“It doesn’t matter who scored the goal and whether it is rated for me. It could also have hit the witness manager. We did our job and won,” said Johnson after the whistle.
Sextet in the Champions League
Tottenham wandered towards him after the break and took time from the match clock against Manchester United for this purpose. The Londoners conquered the first trophy since the English Ligap Cup in 2008.
“Tottenham is such a great club, we absolutely had to win a trophy because it was not possible for 17 years,” said Johnson. “Even if it went badly in the league, we knew that the Europa League is a huge chance for us. It’s just indescribable. Now I just enjoy it.” The most recent FA-Cup victory was in 1991, the UEFA Cup triumph in 1984. As a reward, Tottenham is the sixth English team in the Champions League in autumn.
Premiere for Danso
Danso became the first Austrian to be on the ball in a final of the Europa League. The 26-year-old almost even scored 2-0 on a counterattack (85th). Coach Oliver Glasner won the 2022 trophy with Frankfurt, at that time Martin Hinteregger was missing injured in the final. In addition, Stefan Ilsanker did not seem to appear in the squad.
