Tottenham Wins 2025 UEFA Europa League

Tottenham Hotspur ended a 17-year trophy drought in dramatic fashion, defeating Manchester United 1–0 in the 2025 UEFA Europa League Final at San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao.

The lone goal came from Brennan Johnson, whose calm finish in the 58th minute sent the North London club into euphoria.

It marked Spurs’ first European silverware since the 1984 UEFA Cup, and their first major trophy since winning the League Cup in 2008.
