After Brennan Johnson scored a goal, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Manchester United 1-0 in the 2024/25 UEFA Europa League final and successfully won the championship. Brennan Johnson said that Postecoglou always believed in the players' abilities and always motivated the players to fight.
In the 42nd minute of the game, Bentancur organized an attack, Sarr received the ball and passed it to the penalty area, and then Brennan Johnson dealt with Luke Shaw's defense and fell to the ground and shot, helping Tottenham Hotspur to take the lead 1-0.
In the end, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Manchester United 1-0, successfully breaking the 17-year championship drought and also qualified for the important Champions League.
Brennan Johnson, who helped Tottenham Hotspur win the championship, said, "We had a bad season, but I swear, none of us players care about the past now. This club hasn't won any championship in 17 years, and it means a lot."
"The fans are always laughed at and we are often criticized, saying that Tottenham Hotspur can't win anything, but now we finally won the trophy, I am really happy. Since I came to Tottenham Hotspur, all I heard was that this is a good team, but it just can't win, but now we have done it."
Although Tottenham Hotspur's performance in the Premier League this season is not ideal, winning the Europa League has undoubtedly given the team greater confidence to face future challenges.
In addition, Tottenham Hotspur coach Postecoglou once said that he could win the championship in the second season of coaching different clubs, and Postecoglou once again fulfilled his promise.
Brennan Johnson said, "He completed the task. He once said that he would win the championship in his second year, and he really did it. I really appreciate his trust in all of us, but frankly speaking, our performance was not good enough sometimes."
"But in the Europa League, he always has a way to motivate the team, and now this is the best proof."
On the other hand, Tottenham Hotspur defender Van der Ven, who made a key block in the game against Manchester United, said, "This season is really difficult. Our performance in the Premier League is indeed poor, which I cannot deny. But in Europe, we played very well. I am very happy that the coach said that he would always win the championship in the second year of coaching. We are happy for him and proud of this team."
"We showed our quality every time we played in Europe and the manager played a huge role in that. He always believed in us and made sure we moved forward as a team. We always believed that this team could make history and we did it."
