Tottenham Hotspur ended their 17-year wait for a trophy on Wednesday as Brennan Johnson’s 42nd-minute goal was enough to beat Manchester United 1-0 and win the Europa League.
Both clubs went into the game under massive pressure after hugely disappointing Premier League campaigns left United in 16th place and Spurs below them in 17th, but Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou kept his promise of always winning something in his second season.

Postecoglou was facing an uphill battle to save his job, but he has now delivered Spurs’ first trophy since 2008 and their first European hardware since 1984. They also secured a spot in the Champions League and an estimated £100 million in revenue at the expense of United, who face a season in the wilderness with no European football for the first time since 2014-15.
