MU and Spurs have a chance to win tickets to the Champions League with a bonus of 100 million pounds. |
In the early morning of May 2, coach Ruben Amorim and his team crushed Athletic Bilbao 3-0 at San Mames Stadium, in the first leg of the semi-final when their opponents were down to 10 men. In the remaining match, coach Ange Postecoglou and Spurs won 3-1 against Bodo/Glimt, opening the door to the final on May 21.
Both MU and Spurs are currently in 14th and 16th place in the Premier League respectively. Winning the Europa League will not only save their honor but also bring Champions League qualification and a bonus of up to 100 million pounds for both teams.
Center-back Harry Maguire shared after the match: "This victory is very important. Scoring 3 goals and keeping a clean sheet. People will think we have one foot in the final, but we cannot be subjective. We will be ready for the second leg at Old Trafford."
Legend Rio Ferdinand commented: "A dream scenario. A mature performance, based on discipline and taking advantage of the opponent's mistake with the red card". Paul Scholes agreed: "Great result. The red card changed the game, but it was still a match where MU controlled the situation well".
If Manchester United and Tottenham reach the final, it will be the fifth all-English European Cup final in history. Tottenham lost 0-2 to Liverpool in the 2019 Champions League final, the same year Chelsea also beat Arsenal 4-1 in the Europa League final.
MU defeated Chelsea in the 2008 Champions League final, while Spurs beat Wolves to win the UEFA Cup in 1972.
