Three English teams have guaranteed their places in the European championships in an incredible display of Premier League supremacy. Chelsea has advanced to the UEFA Europa Conference League final, while Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur will compete in the UEFA Europa League final.
Inter’s run to the European champions League game was nothing short of spectacular. They won 7-6 overall, including a thrilling 4-3 triumph at San Siro, to defeat Barcelona in a high-scoring semifinal.
Under Luis Enrique’s leadership, PSG demonstrated their development by overcoming Arsenal 3-1 on aggregate in the semi-finals. Fabián Ruiz and Achraf Hakimi’s pivotal performances were crucial to their development in the European Champions League.
Manchester United put on a dominant display against Athletic Club at Old Trafford, defeating them 4-1 in the second leg of their semi-final match to win 7-1 overall. Mikel Jauregizar gave the visitors hope with an early goal, but United rallied with goals from Mason Mount (two goals), Casemiro, and Rasmus Højlund. Mount made history by becoming the first United substitute to score twice in a European knockout game since David Beckham in 2003 with his brace.
Tottenham Hotspur defeated Bodø/Glimt 2-0 in Norway to complete a 5-1 aggregate victory and secure their spot in the final. Spurs, who handled the difficult Arctic conditions with poise, won thanks to goals from Pedro Porro and Dominic Solanke. In addition to stressing the squad’s depth and the importance of making it to the club’s first European final in more than 40 years, manager Ange Postecoglou commended his team’s maturity and tenacity.
Chelsea defeated Djurgården 1-0 at Stamford Bridge to go to the UEFA Europa Conference League final and earn a 5-1 aggregate victory. The game-winning goal was scored by Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, proving the team’s strength despite having a rotating roster. After Real Betis defeated Fiorentina on aggregate, Chelsea will play the Spanish team in the championship match.
