Europa League: Tottenham beat Man United to lift first trophy in 17 years

London outfit edge out former European champions 1-0 to claim their first European title in over four decades
Tottenham Hotspur's title drought is finally over.
Brennan Johnson scored the winning goal three minutes before half-time as Tottenham Hotspur defeated Manchester United 1-0 in the Europa League final on Thursday (IST) to claim their first European title in 41 years and their first major trophy since 2008.
It is the first major title for Tottenham since they won the English League Cup in 2008, and first European triumph since they won their second UEFA Cup—the equivalent of the Europa League now—in 1984.
Brennan Johnson squeezed in the winner at the end of the first half to help Spurs salvage a dismal season in which they will finish near the bottom of the Premier League standings.
The victory in Europe's second-tier competition comes six years after Tottenham fell short against Liverpool in the Champions League final.
Neither team were able to take control of the game, and after Tottenham chose to sit deep in the second half to protect its lead, Manchester United failed to generate any clear-cut chances to equalise.
