We don't want to promise too much, but Micky van de Ven might just get a statue in front of the Tottenham Stadium soon. But that's beside the point. What matters is: The defender just spectacularly saved his Spurs from an equalizer.
Out of nowhere, United had a huge chance to equalize in the 69th minute. Rasmus Höjlund headed the ball towards the seemingly empty goal – and then he appeared: Micky van de Ven.
Like he's a part-time Karate Kid, he somehow managed to kick the ball out of the goal from three meters above the ground. Can you believe it?
We need to take a moment to process this. By the way, the rescue act should pay off: In the end, it stayed 1-0 – and Tottenham snatched the Europa League title.
