Ben Stansall \/ AFP<\/span> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWill the Europa League final be 100 % British<\/em> ? The two English clubs present in the last square in the competition shone on Thursday 1er <\/sup>May, during the semi-finals go. Tottenham easily defeated Bodo Glimt, the Norwegian little thumb (3-1), in London, while Manchester United went to correct the Athletic Bilbao (3-0) at home at San Mam\u00e8s stadium.<\/p>\nThe Spurs of Tottenham have dominated their subject as rarely this season, carried by a very high level atmosphere in their cauldron in the north of London, and helped by the fragility of an adversary with much more limited means. Brennan Johnson attackers (1D<\/sup> Minute), James Maddison (34e<\/sup>) and Dominic Solanke (61e<\/sup>), on penalty, delighted the supporters.<\/p>\n“I don’t think the score reflects our domination this evening, but it must be accepted. We are still in a very good position \u201d<\/em> Before the return, disputed in Norway on an artificial lawn, commented Tottenham coach, Ange Postcoglou. \u201cWe have obviously had a difficult season, but the European evenings this year were very special. They <\/em>[les supporters] played their role this evening “<\/em>applauded the Australian.<\/p>\nTombers of Twente, Olympiacos and Lazio, the Norwegians were deprived of two holders on suspension, including ex-Lensois Patrick Berg, and had three less replacements than their opponents on the bench at the start. They also had more than 60,000 hostile supporters in the back at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, more than the number of inhabitants of Bodo.<\/p>\n\nRead also |<\/span> Bodo Glimt, the little Norwegian club who invited himself to the Banquet of the Great Bigs of the Europa League <\/span> <\/div>\n Read later<\/span> <\/button> <\/p>\n<\/section>\nThe start of the match was catastrophic for the double champions of Norway in title, exceeded in the commitment, a little naive defensively, and punished by a head of Johnson less than forty seconds after the kick -off. James Maddison doubled the bet after having nicely controlled a long ball and then launched a cross shot, passed between the goalkeeper and two defenders.<\/p>\n
Bodo Glimt wants to believe it again<\/h2>\n Norwegian goalkeeper Nikita Haikin has produced a beautiful parade on a volley by Rodrigo Bentancur (38e<\/sup>), but he could not do anything on the penalty obtained by Cristian Romero and transformed by Solanke. Captain of Bodo, Ulrik Saltnes, reduced the gap after a nice dribbling in the surface followed by a shot, deflected by an opponent (83e<\/sup>), to maintain a timid hope of qualification before the return round, May 8 in Norway.<\/p>\nThis goal is “Very important”<\/em> In view of the return match, said Bodo coach Kjetil Kutsen. At home, “We will have opportunities, we are not the favorites, but we will fight”<\/em>.<\/p>\n Athletic player Bilbao Maroan Sannadi during a duel with the Mancunian Casemiro, author of the first goal, during the semi-final to go between Bilbao and Manchester United, at the San Mam\u00e8s stadium, on May 1, 2025. Ander Gillenea \/ AFP<\/span> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\nIn the other semi-final, Manchester United beaten the Athletic Bilbao on his field in San Mam\u00e8s. The Red Devils, who only have Europe to save their season, found themselves in numerical superiority from the 35e <\/sup>Minute, after the severe expulsion of defender Dani Vivian for an obstruction on the Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund.<\/p>\nThe English club was put on the right rails by the Brazilian Casemiro (30e<\/sup>) and carried by a double of his Portuguese captain Bruno Fernandes (37e<\/sup> SP, 45e<\/sup> + 4). The ultra-realistic Mancunians took advantage of the opposing defensive generosity to open the scoring against the course of the game, while the Basques had just created the best occasions (7e<\/sup>11e<\/sup>19e<\/sup>), before collapsing following the disputed penalty granted to Hojlund and the red card from Vivian.<\/p>\nAnger against arbitration in Bilbao<\/h2>\n This situation, revised by video arbitration, provoked the anger and misunderstanding of the players and the staff of Bilbao, who demanded, in vain, a hand of the Argentinian Alejandro Garnacho at the start of the action.<\/p>\n\n Newsletter<\/span> <\/p>\n“Sport”<\/p>\n

The Basques then spent their time defending, and could even have undergone an even heavier humiliation, but the Moroccan lateral were Ussir Mazraoui (45e<\/sup> + 4) and the Brazilian environment Casemiro (64e<\/sup>), first scorer of the match, found the bar and the opposing post. Bilbao will now take an immense feat on Old Trafford’s lawn next Thursday to go up this delay.<\/p>\nManchester United, on the other hand, is getting closer to a third C3 final, the last chance to save a nightmarish season at home, where he points to 14e<\/sup> Place de la Premier League, and to find the Champions League. In the final, the English club could find Tottenham who, like him, in difficulty in the Premier League (16e<\/sup>) is nonetheless dangerous. The Spurs beat the Red Devils three times this season, twice in the league and once in the League Cup.<\/p>\n\nRead also |<\/span> Article reserved for our subscribers<\/span><\/span> Liverpool cheers for the 20th title of club England of the club <\/span> <\/div>\n Read later<\/span> <\/button> <\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n The world with AFP<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/section>\n <\/section>\n<\/p><\/div>\nTm-En-1<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tottenham player James Maddison, author of a goal against Bodo Glimt in the first leg of the Europa League, at Hotspur Stadium in London, on May 1, 2025.
