Tottenham Hospur vs Liverpool: Who will be the UEFA Champions League champion?

This is the match between Tottenham and Liverpool to find the new European champion of the 2018 - 2019 season.

Both Tottenham and Liverpool have written the most miraculous stories in the Champions League semi-finals this season. Premier League runners-up Liverpool made an incredible comeback against giants Barcelona right at Anfield after being 3 goals down in the first leg with a 4-0 victory in the second leg, thereby holding their heads high in the final.

Liverpool's opponents, Tottenham, were no slouches when they did the same. Despite being down 0-1 in the first leg and 0-2 in the second leg, Pochettino's side beat Ajax at the Johan Cruyff Arena in the second half thanks to a hat-trick from Lucas Moura to advance on away goals (the final score was 3-3) and make it to the final for the first time in history.

The presence of “The Rooster” and “The Red Brigade” in the final is completely deserved when Real Madrid became the former champion because they lost their identity, Barca fell because they underestimated their opponents, Juven stopped, Man Utd played weakly... then Liverpool and Tottenham represent the desire and effort to reach the pinnacle of glory.

Liverpool's brave spirit is undeniable, it has been proven in this year's Premier League, when the "Red Brigade" chased the defending champion Man City point by point. At the same time, creating the most dramatic two-horse race in the history of the Premier League. It was not until the final round that Man City officially defended the title successfully, with only 1 point more than Liverpool.

Entering the upcoming battle with Tottenham, coach Jurgen Klopp's team is still rated higher than their opponent thanks to their extensive experience in the Champions League arena. Along with that is a squad of quality players and a deep squad. Including the best player in the Premier League season 2018-2019, center-back Virgil van Dijk. At the same time, coach Jurgen Klopp owns 2 top scorers this season, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane. Besides, the return from injury of Fimino will form a formidable attack for any defense.

For Tottenham, since the last few seasons, the London team has had a strong rise since coach Pochettino took the helm. At the end of previous seasons, the "Rooster" has always been in the top of the European Cup.

This season, Tottenham also had an impressive start. There were times when they created fierce competition with Man City and Liverpool.

However, with many injuries as well as a lack of quality additions in the transfer market, Tottenham could not maintain their strength in the fierce race. But all the efforts and desires of the London team were also rewarded when they reached the final. And have the opportunity to lift the prestigious Champions League Cup for the first time after 137 years in the history of the club, if they beat Liverpool in this match.

Facing a strong team like Liverpool, coach Pochettino does not have the strongest squad, as main striker Harry Kane is doubtful of playing due to injury, and winger Aurier is also absent for the same reason.

All hopes now rest on the "special Asian" Son Heung-min and hero Lucas Moura to push Tottenham forward.

Tottenham will certainly enter the match with the same confidence they had in the semi-finals and quarter-finals, turning Man City and Ajax into losers and creating miracles.

In the context of Chelsea just being crowned Europa League champions, Man City winning all domestic titles, Liverpool and Tottenham have no reason not to give their all for the final battle in the Champions League arena, when glory is only one match away from the gates of heaven.

The UEFA Champions League final between Tottenham vs Liverpool will take place at 02:00 (VN time) on June 2, 2019.
