SportsTranscript
00:00Tottenham have one foot in the final after last week's results, but will tread carefully on this synthetic surface in the Arctic Circle after Ulrich Soltness' late goal in London.
00:10So a change in the back with Breda Moe starting in the middle in the continued absence of Odin Björthöft.
00:16Ulrich Soltness scored in the first leg. World Cup winner Christian Romero captains the side.
00:20Brennan Johnson scored the fastest ever goal in the Europa League semi-final last week.
00:24Tottenham Hotspur, as it stands, 90 minutes away from what would be their sixth major European final.
00:35So many teams on the continent find hard to deal with when the English teams are at the absolute best.
00:39Soltness gave them lots of great energy in that first game.
00:44He's on the bench now, but he was a big player for them before he was taken out.
00:47Little layoff there.
00:51By Hurt, and that was Haugat racing forward.
00:55Corner, Breda glimpsed.
00:59Yeah, just need one or two things to go their way in the opening minutes of this match.
01:03Get the crowd truly engaged.
01:06Corner or two, shot on target, test the goalkeeper.
01:15Need some reward for the possession that you have.
01:18Dangerous looking delivery.
01:20And Blomberg into the side netting.
01:22Moved all the way around the back.
01:25It only Brennan Johnson was supposed to go with him.
01:28Rushes out at the end.
01:29A little bit lucky.
01:30The Tottenham man that that shot is not on target.
01:32Yeah, just rushed in the end of the shot from Blomberg.
01:40Big moment midway through the first half.
01:43Pedro Porro sends it in and Aikin tips it over the bar.
01:56That's a good stop.
01:57Up and over the wall and dipping down underneath the crossbar.
01:59Yeah, that is a good save.
02:05Just leaning towards his left side.
02:09And you can do nothing about it if that ball is curling towards a post.
02:12That's a better save than I can even credit for.
02:14Yeah, top save from Aikin.
02:19He's now looking to provide an equally good delivery in the corner.
02:25It was a good one as well to the far post.
02:28Across.
02:30Maybe something different.
02:31Shift to the edge of the box on the shot.
02:33Patrick Berg sends it in.
02:40Flapped away by Vicaria behind for a corner.
02:44He's that ball again, yeah.
02:46Great free kick.
02:47Good goalkeeping because if he just ventures out another half a yard or so,
02:50anticipating that it's a real cross, he's in big front.
02:54There's a warning sign if you give any free kicks away in a more central area.
02:59This guy's a good technician.
03:00Here he is again, Patrick Berg sending it in.
03:05Hangs in the air, Gundersen getting up for it.
03:09Nice and confidently, doesn't he?
03:10Quite a few of them being quite close to the Tottenham players,
03:14but everyone has found its mark so far.
03:19Seem to be growing in confidence, the home side,
03:21the longer this half wears on.
03:26A nine-match unbeaten streak at home.
03:30And certainly breeds confidence.
03:35Six wins, one loss at home in that time in Europa League.
03:41So they should be on this turf.
03:42Ola Diedrich-Glomberg into Evgen.
03:48Now Berg.
03:52Worked wide by Bjorkan.
03:54Alga sends it across.
03:56Here's a chance for Hoop.
03:57Just didn't quite fall for him, perhaps.
03:59Yeah, just that little movement forward.
04:04And then he had to check himself and then move backwards.
04:06The pace that was on the ball, nothing wrong with it,
04:08but difficult to read just and then get back in.
04:11To get up, you know, that's sort of on the way down as the ball arrives at him.
04:14Yeah, he was about half a pace away from being the perfect delivery.
04:20Tottenham, as I said, in cruise control defensively, largely.
04:32There goes the half-time whistle.
04:34Nothing in it in the opening 45 minutes.
04:36Tottenham managing, for the most part, to keep Bode glimpsed at arm's length.
04:40He's not ready. He's not on the dot.
04:43Now he's ready, and now we're underway.
04:47Tottenham kicking from left to right in the second half.
04:51Sjöbold.
04:54Who did OK against Richarlison, has now got another really good player
04:58to try and keep an eye on with, Matisse Tell.
05:10What a pace on that ball back towards Nikita Hajkin.
05:37Let's tell they will take this corner.
05:53Jeffrey's saying, get them with it, please.
05:59It's decided to take a little bit longer to just tee the ball up.
06:02Matisse Tell sending it across.
06:04Romero rising high.
06:06Trottenham have got the goal.
06:07They so badly needed.
06:10Dominic Solanke was there.
06:11And with just over an hour played.
06:14Surely that's the goal that seals the deal to send Tottenham into the Europa League final in Bilbao.
06:221-0 on the night.
06:244-1 on aggregate.
06:26It's a long, long way back for Vodoglip.
06:33Well, there's a captain's leap for you.
06:35Christian Romero at the far post with a towering header.
06:39Back into that danger area.
06:42Down into the ground.
06:44Yeah, and there's where strikers should be poaching for that opportunity.
06:48Right in front of the goalkeeper.
06:49Solanke is alive.
06:50That was away from Dayan Kulusevski.
06:52Can't get it past.
06:53Bissouma, who's quietly gone about his business well in midfield for Spurs tonight.
06:57This is Destiny Udogi into Saar.
07:04Toro.
07:10It's two.
07:11Pedro Poro for Tottenham Hotspur.
07:16That's the semi-final sorted.
07:19Spurs are heading to Bilbao.
07:21And their sixth European final.
07:26It's been a long, long journey for those fans in every sense of the word this season.
07:30Not least tonight to this northern outpost in Norway.
07:34But it was worth every kilometre.
07:37Because they're seeing their team marching towards Spain and a European final.
07:42Well, I wonder if this competition has been a little bit more predictable.
07:52Well, that's Nielsen here for Bode Glimt.
07:55As the clock ticks down.
07:57And Vicario, a bit of a finger stinger, a substitute.
08:04You'll be pleased with the word, the goalkeeper.
08:12As the final few seconds of this Europa League semi-final playout.
08:25And Patrick Berg sends it forward here.
08:27And still Bode Glimt are working hard.
08:29Trying to get a goal.
08:30And are they going to have a penalty kick here?
08:32Right at the end of the game.
08:35That's the response from referee Mariani initially.
08:38I know.
08:40I was looking for it.
08:41I'm not sure if Porro made much contact at all, to be honest.
08:45Sondre Soli has got the opportunity to go down.
08:50Any contact here?
08:52Not from that angle.
08:53No.
08:54Quick look says no.
08:59Referee didn't need too long to reach that conclusion.
09:07No foul from Pedro Porro.
09:11Clearly got the ball.
09:16Sondre Soli, the player, going to ground.
09:25Well, congratulations, Spurs.
09:26Should be a great night in Spain in a couple of weeks' time.
09:28Whoever they played.
09:32There it is.
09:33The final whistle in Norway.
