On May 21st, 2025 the Europa League Final was played between two English clubs, Tottenham Hotspurs vs Manchester United. The final was a weird one as the game seemingly felt like a league game in England not a European final between two world class teams. The teams are together in 16th and 17th in the league one spots away from relegation into the championship. The victors of the game were Tottenham; their one and only goal came from Luke Shaw, an opposing player. The jokes write themselves because these teams are so mediocre that the way Manchester loss the game was off an own goal. The win on Wednesday was their first trophy in 17 years marking the end of the “spurs trophy curse.” The trophy marked Heung Min Son’s first ever trophy with the club and it was a long deserved one as he’s one of the best players in this generation with solo accolades like the prestigious Puskás award and the EPL golden boot. The Korean King has finally helped his club that has underperformed when it matters to his dismay. He has finally touched European Glory. Long live the Korean King Sonny.
