However, things took a different turn for Manchester United vs Tottenham at San Mames when Spur’s player Brennan Johnson scored in the 42nd minute.
The Red Devils kept hope that they would equalise in the second half of the game, but it remained a pipe dream.
Tottenham played a hugely defensive game that made it hard for Ruben Amorim to win the Europa League this season.
Omanga, a diehard Man United fan, kept her hope alive through the second half, even asking her fans to ‘relax,’ 90 minutes weren’t over yet.
“Haija gulwaaaaa bado, game ni 90mins, relax guys. Man U bado top (It’s not over yet, the game is 90 minutes, relax guys Man United is still on top),” she posted I the second half.
Unfortunately, she ate humble pie as the referee blew the final whistle with Tottenham winning the Europa League.
She later told her fans that she had conceded the loss of the game and her Ksh1 million.
Mita yangu moja (1,000,000 Ksh) imeenda tu hivo, nimetii! Good night wakurugenzi (My Ksh1 million has just gone down the drain. I have accepted. Good night my people).”

Some of her critics told her off, noting that with her political stand, she wouldn’t win a dime from Manchester United vs Tottenham Europa final.
“Do you think mkewin baadaya ya kujaribu backdoor entry?
Hata ingeenda ikiwa mita kumi (Do you think you would have won after trying the backdoor entry? You should have lost like Ksh10 million), ” a fan boldly stated.
Another Chelsea fan said that a loss for Manchester United is such good news for the world. He hyperbolically said that this loss is so good that it’s news that ‘can cure a cancer patient.”
Lewis Tuya informed Omanga that United was the only team in the Premier League working hard but ending the season ‘poor.’

The Spurs’ win in Manchester United vs. Tottenham on Wednesday night ended a 17-year drought without a trophy.
Following this victory, football legend Gareth Bale has asked the Spurs’ board to determine the future of the team’s head coach, Ange Postecoglou.
Reports indicate that the Tottenham manager’s future with the team hangs by a thread.
Previous reports from insiders hinted that the board had a resolution to send him away at the end of this season, even after winning major trophies.
Based on these reports, Bale while speaking to TNT Sports, challenged Tottenham’s board to pronounce itself on the issue now that he delivered the European Cup.
Johnson was among Tottenham’s starting 11 who thwarted United’s dream of the European Cup this season.
Postecoglou attributed the team’s victory to their top physical form and apt defensive skills.
Meanwhile, Amorim described the loss as painful. However, he thanked United fans for their unwavering support throughout the season.
