Ange Postecoglou's dream of ending a wretched season for Tottenham with a piece of silverware is still alive after Spurs put on a polished, professional performance in Norway to beat Bodo/Glimt 2-0 and book a place in an all-English Europa League final.
Spurs' 5-1 semi-final aggregate win has set them up with a mouth-watering finale to a troubled season as they'll play Manchester United in the one-off decider after their fellow Premier League strugglers beat Athletic Bilbao 4-1 at Old Trafford for a 7-1 aggregate win.
The final will be in Bilbao, Spain on May 21 with Postecoglou having a chance to maintain his proud assertion that he always wins a trophy in his second year in any managerial job.
It looked a tough assignment in the Arctic Circle on Thursday for Spurs, who led 3-1 after the first home leg but had to contend with a team who've become one of the romantic favourites in the tournament and are awfully hard to beat on their own plastic pitch as many European luminaries have discovered.
But two goals in six minutes just after the hour from Dominic Solanke and Pedro Porro were enough to underline Spurs' superiority with Postecoglou's job prospects at the club having been given a major boost.
