Triumph. Tears. Tottenham.
It's been twenty years since Tottenham Hotspur returned to European football. Under popular manager Martin Jol, the likes of Robbie Keane, Ledley King and Dimitar Berbatov led the Premier League side back on the continent after a period of absence and the club have remained European mainstays ever since.
Along the way there have been phenomenal highs; the Miracle of Ajax, Dele Alli's two goals on a victorious night against the mighty Real Madrid, Gareth Bale announcing himself on the world stage against Inter Milan and, of course, Brennan Johnson's goal against Manchester United in the 2025 Europa League final sealing the trophy in Bilbao for the club for the first time in over 40 years.
Yet with the ecstasy has come the inevitable agony, none starker than the Champions League final defeat to Liverpool in 2019 and the embarrassment of losing to Dinamo Zagreb side whose manager had been imprisoned before the game! It's all here in this book, Tottenham's journey in European competition through the joy and the misery and the story of the club's European adventures in the last two decades.
