Son Heung-min expressed joy and pride after Tottenham Hotspur won their first major trophy in 17 years by defeating Manchester United 1-0 in the Europa League final. This victory marked Son's first silverware at any level, having previously lost in three finals. In a light-hearted moment, Son called himself a Tottenham 'legend' during his post-match interview. Manager Ange Postecoglou and the Spurs community recognized Son's dedication over the years, culminating finally in this success, which has brought him immense happiness.
Let's say I'm a legend. Why not? Seventeen years - nobody has done it, so let's say with amazing players, [I am] probably a legend of the club.
I felt the pressure. I wanted it so badly. In the past seven days I was dreaming about this game every night. It finally happened and I can sleep easy now.
We've had some unbelievable champion footballers at this club - Harry [Kane] is a prime example - and they haven't had a day like this.
This is what I've always dreamed for. Today is the day it happened. I am the happiest man in the world.
