Tottenham captain Heung-min Son suffers head injury in Europa League trophy mishap: ‘Somebody pushed me!'
Heung-min Son was left with a Europa League battle scar after cutting his forehead on the trophy in the heat of Tottenham's celebrations in Bilbao. The Spurs captain suffered a nasty-looking gash above his right eye as Spurs celebrated beating Manchester United to end their 17-year-old trophy drought. 'Look at this!' said Son, holding his hair to show the damage in a video posted by Spurs on social media. Son then explained how the trophy grazed his forehead during the celebrations. 'I lift [the trophy]; somebody pushed me, and I [hit my] head with the trophy!' The red mark did not seem to bother Son too much and, still smiling, he then went over to Spurs fans to continue the celebrations on the pitch. Worth it 🤕🏆 — Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) May 21, 2025 The caption on the post from Spurs read: 'Worth it.' Son said after the game that he can now be called a 'legend' after he achieved his dream of lifting silverware at Spurs, who beat Manchester United 1-0 thanks to a goal from Brennan Johnson and a miraculous late goalline clearance from Micky van de Ven. The South Korean has previously said he could be considered among the club's greatest players due to his lack of silverware. But Son told TNT Sports: 'Let's say I'm a legend. Why not? 'Only today! 17 years nobody has done it, so today let's say with amazing players probably a legend of the club. 'This is what I've always dreamed for. Today is the day it happened. I am the happiest man in the world.'

Why Tottenham trio made to wait for Europa League medals as UEFA apologise
Heung-min Son was among three Tottenham players not to receive a medal immediately after the Europa League final. Spurs beat Manchester United 1-0 in Bilbao thanks to Brennan Johnson's 42nd-minute winner. The Spurs club captain, alongside skipper on the night Cristian Romero and midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur, did not have medals around their necks on the pitch as it transpired that UEFA had run out. It meant that when it came to lifting the trophy - Spurs' first since 2008 and first European silverware for 41 years - the trio were the only players to be medal-less. They did eventually receive their own personal awards back in the dressing room, with more medals held back to be handed out to members of the backroom staff afterwards. It was revealed that UEFA had planned for 30 medals to be handed out in the on-pitch ceremony, and Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou was the first to receive one from president Aleksander Ceferin. James Maddison, Lucas Bergvall, and Timo Werner - all ruled out of the final through injury - were awarded their medals, but that left Son, Romero, and Bentancur - all of whom played a part in Bilbao - without their own. Will Lankshear, who spent the second half of the season on loan at Championship side West Brom, received a medal ahead of the three players as well. The incident prompted UEFA to release a statement admitting that more Tottenham team members had participated in the ceremony than anticipated. "To our great displeasure, we did not have enough medals available on stage during the trophy ceremony presentation due to an unexpected discrepancy in the player count, as more team members - including injured players - participated in the ceremony than initially anticipated," Uefa said. "The missing medals were promptly delivered to the winning team in the dressing room, along with our sincerest apologies for the oversight." UEFA's rules say that both sides - winners and losers - are given 50 medals each, with it then being up to the club as to how those medals are handed out amongst playing and backroom staff.
