Big win for Spurs today to close out the season at White Hart Lane and remain undefeated at home. The point total now is their highest ever and they locked up second place with that victory. Pretty large improvement over last season when after the Stamford Bridge setback they basically mailed it in. I think its a sign that the team has matured some and is making some nice progress.
The send off at the lane was awesome overall. The atmosphere looked great and it was helped of course by the strong team performance.
With the loss United is officially out of the top four and to qualify for CL they have to win the EL final. I thought that they looked pretty bad defensively today and the only reason they were really in the game at all was De Gea. He made a couple huge saves and covered for lapses for sure. United didn't show a whole lot going forward either. Although that could be as much due to the fact that there was a lot of rotation and it was pretty obvious that the focus is on Ajax and not the league now.
