A season to forget for Man United

“We’ve let the fans down far too much this season. This is our shot at making it right.”

The final, set to kick off at 8:00 PM in Bilbao, promises fireworks. With both clubs eager to write a better ending to a frustrating season, expect a tense, emotionally charged battle.
Man United’s injury boost and Spurs’ hunger for silverware have set the stage for an unforgettable night of European football.
