Tottenham books place in Europa League final
Tottenham booked its place in the Europa League final with a 2-0 win over Bodo/Glint in the semi-final second leg on Friday, winning 5-1 on aggregate.
Dominic Solanke and Pedro Porro scored the all-important goals in the second half as Spurs survived some scares early on from their host.
Ange Postecoglou's team has reached its first European final since 2019 when it lost to Liverpool in the showpiece match in the Champions League, and will now face Manchester United, which thumped Athetic Club 7-1 on aggregate in the other semi-final.
Ole Didrik Blomberg was left unmarked at the far post on an eighth-minute corner, but rushed his effort, firing into the side netting under no pressure.
Destiny Udogie then saw a low drive across the face of goal pushed away by Nikita Haikin, who tipped Porro's dipping free-kick over the crossbar.
Spurs grew into the game as the first half wore on, with Yves Bissouma trying his luck from the edge of the box off a corner, but his effort sailed just over the top.
It was all Postecoglou's side in the second half, and it found its breakthrough in the 63rd minute. Mathys Tel swung an inviting corner into the box, and Cristian Romero towered above everybody to nod it down into the six-yard box for Solanke to poke past Haikin.
Just six minutes later, the Premier League club's fate was sealed. Udogie broke quickly down the left and patiently spread it right with the help of Dejan Kulusevski. He teed up Porro, who looked like he was attempting a cross, but Haikin was caught out by the flight of the ball, and it nestled into the back of the net.
Bodo/Glimt kept pushing until the end, with Sondre Sorli drilling a powerful shot on goal, but it was straight down the middle at Guglielmo Vicario.
In the closing seconds, the referee awarded the host side a penalty as it looked like Porro felled Sorli in the box, but after a VAR review, the decision was overturned as the defender did not make contact with the substitute.
