US EditionWhy Spurs Trio Made to Wait for Europa League Medals as UEFA Apologise
- Tottenham Hotspur won 1-0 against Manchester United in the Europa League final on May 21, 2025, in Bilbao, Spain.
- UEFA ran out of medals during the ceremony because Tottenham had more team members, including injured players, than expected to receive medals.
- Only 30 medals were handed out during the ceremony, while an additional 20 were supplied to the club afterward to allocate among players and team personnel off the field.
- Captain Son Heung-min lifted the trophy but was among the few Tottenham players, including Cristian Romero and Rodrigo Bentancur, who did not receive medals on the pitch.
- UEFA apologized for the oversight, delivering missing medals to Tottenham in the dressing room and prompting a club parade in north London on Friday.
