A great intervention that was important for the triumph in the Europa League! He cleared the ball from the goal line (VIDEO)
Tottenham won the Europa League. The decisive goal for Ange Postecoglou's team was scored by Brennan Johnson, but the hero of the match was also the defender of the "Spurs" - Micky van de Ven - who made a brilliant save in the second half.
6296 days - that's how long it's been since Tottenham last won a trophy. In 2009, the club from the north of London won the League Cup. However, from that moment on, the "Spurs" began their disastrous run.

Tottenham ended their stalemate in Bilbao on Wednesday evening, with Ange Postecoglou’s side beating Manchester United at San Mames thanks to a goal from Brennan Johnson.
Another hero of the match was Micky van de Ven. The Dutchman showed a fantastic performance in the 68th minute of the game. Rasmus Hojlund headed the ball into an empty net, the ball was heading for the net, but at the last moment the Tottenham center-back cleared it off the line.
Van de Ven thus saved his team from conceding a goal and contributed significantly to keeping a clean sheet and the final success of the London club.
For Tottenham, this is their first trophy in a long time, but also their first victory in the Europa League. Before that, the Londoners had won the UEFA Cup (1972, 1984), the predecessor of the current competition.
