Spurs as boss Postecoglou is left dreaming of Bilbao final

- BY JOHN CROSS

GLIMT IN THEIR EYE

ANGE POSTECOGLOU has saved the best for big European nights - and this was the best of all.

Tottenham were sensational as they swept aside Norwegian minnows Bodo/Glimt as they put one foot in the Europa League final.

It was rip-roaring, loud and brilliant as they blew Bodo/Glimt away with one of the best nights this magnificent stadium has ever seen.

They have been woeful in the Premier League this season but somehow they seem to be able to turn on the style in the Europa League.

Spurs boss Postecoglou insists that he always wins a trophy in his second season and he looks determined to keep his promise while delivering Tottenham's first piece of silverware in 17 years.

Tottenham are now unbeaten in 20 home games in Europe and few have been better than this because the crowd joined together, turned up the volume and the visitors looked scared stiff.
