Mourinho reacts to Tottenham beating Man Utd in Europa League final
Fenerbahce manager, Jose Mourinho has claimed the Europa League final will have a “huge impact” on both winners Tottenham and runners-up Manchester United.
The all-English final saw Ange Postecoglou’s men win 1-0, thanks to a Brennan Johnson’s goal.
The result saw Spurs end a 17-year wait to lift a major trophy and saw them qualify for next season’s Champions League.
For the Red Devils, the defeat capped off a miserable campaign that saw them finish in 15th place in the Premier League.
Mourinho, who has managed both clubs, told Sky Sports: “For the fans, the players and Ange, it’s a title.
“Yes the game was not amazing but they made history for Tottenham because Tottenham didn’t have a trophy for so many years.
“From what I read – just what I read – the impact on United of course is huge in the sense of for how many years has United are not involved in any European competition.”
