Ange Postecoglou will be aiming to lead Tottenham to their first silverware since 2008 as they face Manchester United in the Europa League finals on Thursday morning (AEST).
The Australian coach took the helm of the Premier League team in 2023, securing a 5th place finish in his inaugural season. However, this season has been disappointing, with Spurs positioned 17th on the table with one match remaining.

Tottenham’s Europa League journey has been a notable high point, as they face Manchester United, who are also struggling and currently positioned 16th.

How can I watch the Europa League final? What channel is it on?

The final kicks off at 5am AEST in Bilbao, Spain, and will be the third final in the competition to feature two English teams.

It will be broadcast on 9Gem and 9Gem HD, starting at 4.30am AEST on Thursday.

How did Tottenham get to the Europa League final?

Spurs finished fourth in the Europa League group stage — one spot below Manchester United — and went on to defeat Dutch side AZ Alkmaar, Germany’s Eintracht Frankfurt and Norway’s FK Bodø/Glimt in the knockout stages.

United saw off Real Sociedad, Lyon and Athletic Bilbao as they made their way to the final.

What will happen to Postecoglou?

Tottenham’s league performances have placed pressure on Postecoglou, but Micky Hazard, part of the club’s 1981-82 FA Cup final-winning team, said the club should stick with the Australian if the side win.
He told Reuters: “I think it’s important that they get out of that cycle, win or bust, win or bust, win or bust.”
“Look through history and you look at Alex Ferguson. He took five or six years to win things with Manchester United [Ferguson’s first trophy, the 1990 FA Cup, came three-and-a-half years after he joined the club] and then he won things non-stop. Success — it’s not overnight, and the longer it takes to get it, the more solid the foundation is.
“Alex Ferguson built on his first five years of not winning a trophy by winning everything for the next 20 years.

“Will Ange stay? I believe that winning a trophy is the ultimate achievement in football. I always say that lifting a trophy grants a team the chance for another attempt.”
