Hello and welcome to football.london's live coverage of the Europa League final between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United.
It is a huge night in Bilbao for Ange Postecoglou and his Spurs side and it could potentially be a historic day in the club's rich history. The north London club may have struggled in the Premier League this season but it has been a different story altogether in Europe after progressing all the way to the showpiece final.
Manchester United have also endured a similar season and they will be hoping to get one over Spurs in the final after so far losing all three games between the sides this term.
Brennan Johnson put Spurs ahead in the first half in what was a very cagey affair! Tottenham correspondents Alasdair Gold, Rob Guest and Lee Wilmot will be bringing you live updates throughout the match in our live matchday blog.

Key Events
Own goal!20:45
Sarr decision explained19:31
Confirmed Tottenham XI18:49
Spurs sub
Son replaces Richarlison who ran himself into the ground.
Big chance
Brilliant work from Udogie to win a ball in the Spurs box and then race up the pitch as he broke two vs one with Solanke but the striker just couldn't control his pass on the run. Should have been a second goal for Spurs there.
Cleared
Fernandes whips in a great free-kick and Solanke is on hand to clear after Yoro had got a touch to the ball.
United's start
The Red Devils are seeing plenty of the ball at the beginning of the second half but they've yet to call Vicario into action.
Roy Keane verdict
Roy Keane has given his verdict on the opening goal. Speaking as a pundit on CBS Sports, Keane said:
Huge moment but a real lack of quality. They have almost brought their League form to the table, but there's been tension obviously. Spurs have managed to get their noses in front. Big, big moment obviously, we are giving Johnson the goal but I think it might have come off Shaw.
We mentioned before the game about getting bodies in there, United have got bodies back but not obviously doing a defensive job. We look at it closesly, we saw crosses, in-swingers, earlier. I think Maguire has got to focus on clearing the ball.
Johnson does a brilliant run, nice and aggressive but United have enough bodies back but not doing enough. I think, yeah, question marks over the goalkeeper. It looks like an OG to me.
Peep
We're back up and running.
Second half to come
Certainly not the best half of football but Brennan Johnson's opener is currently the difference between the two sides.
Maybe that goal will lead to an improved second half? We'll see.

Half-time

Added time
Two minutes added on.
Own goal!
Sarr intercepts a pass and puts a cross in which deflects off Shaw from Johnson's flick and Onana can't keep it out. 1-0 to Spurs.
Yellow card
Amad sees yellow after pulling Udogie back as he was breaking upfield.
Save
Good goalkeeping from Vicario to take in Fernandes' ball across goal.
Wide
Amad flashes an effort just across the face of goal.
That was close!
Chances
Chances for Spurs as Johnson runs on to a deflected clearance and his low ball across is pushed out by Onana and then Sarr's follow up shot was blocked in front of the six-yard box. Soon after Richarlison has a shot deflected wide.
Close
Terrific cross in from Porro which leaves Onana in no man's land but Richarlison is just beaten to it at the back post.
Block
First attempt on goal for United as Fernandes sees his effort blocked by teammate Mount in the penalty box.
Peep
We're up and running in Bilbao as Spurs get us under way.

Tottenham fans in great spirits
The San Mames Stadium is starting to fill up and Tottenham supporters are certainly making their voices heard.
It's quite the noise!
Leny Yoro starts
The big news from Manchester United's line-up is that defender Leny Yoro starts.
The 19-year-old is set to start on the right hand side of a back three, with Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw the other centre-backs.
Champions League qualification or a trophy?
So what is more important to Tottenham when it comes to a trophy and also Champions League qualification?
Ange Postecoglou has had his say below:
It’s a great prize, the significance of Champions League qualification and what it means for every football club. There are the obvious benefits but also you get the opportunity to play against the best in the continent. But the club has been in the Champions League before. It hasn’t won a trophy for a long time. So that’s the most important thing.
Son on the bench
The big news from Tottenham's team news is that captain Son Heung-min is on the bench.
Ange Postecoglou has opted to start Richarlison, Brennan Johnson and Dominic Solanke as his forward players in Bilbao. You would think, though, that Son will have an impact off the bench.
Confirmed Tottenham XI
Here is the Tottenham team Ange Postecoglou has selected for this evening's final:
Tottenham XI: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bissouma, Bentancur, Sarr; Johnson, Solanke, Richarlison.
Subs: Austin, Whiteman, Danso, Spence, Davies, Gray, Odobert, Son, Tel, Moore, Ajayi, Scarlett.
Confirmed Manchester United team
Here is the Manchester United team to take on Tottenham:
