Tottenham vs Bodo/Glimt Live Streaming: How to Watch the UEFA Europa League Semi-Final Online in the US, UK and India
Tottenham Hotspur will be traveling to Norway for the second leg of their UEFA Europa League semi-final clash against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday. Spurs won 3-1 in the first leg at home and will be hopeful of finishing the job in the return leg.
With their domestic season falling short of expectations, the Europa League remains Tottenham's best and perhaps only chance of winning at a trophy this year. A win in the tournament would allow them to end the campaign on a positive note. However, Tottenham's recent form has not at all been impressive, as they have been inconsistent, with two wins in their last six matches across all competitions.
Tottenham Need to Rebound
Tottenham will need to up their ante if they want to secure a spot in the final. Meanwhile, Bodo/Glimt haven't played since their loss in London, meaning they will be coming into this match fresh. It remains to be seen whether the Norwegian side can use that rest to their advantage and stage a comeback on home soil.
Daniel Bassi will be an absentee for the hosts, but otherwise, Bodo/Glimt have a fully available squad to select from. They are expected to line up in a 4-3-3 setup against Tottenham Hotspur, with Nikita Haikin guarding the net.
Fredrik Sjovold and Fredrik Djorkan will be the full-back. At the center of the backline, Odin Bjortuft will partner with Jostein Gundersen to provide strength and organization.
The midfield trio of Ulrik Saltnes, Patrick Berg, and Hakon Evjen will be tasked with maintaining balance, controlling possession, and offering protection in front of the defense. Out wide, Jens Petter Hauge and Ole Blomberg are set to operate on the wings, bringing speed and creativity to the attack. Kasper Hogh will spearhead the front line as the central striker against Spurs.
Tottenham Hotspur are expected to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Guglielmo Vicario taking his place between the posts. Pedro Porro and Djed Spence will occupy the full-back positions. In central defense, Cristian Romero will be paired with Micky van de Ven to anchor the backline.
In midfield, the double pivot will consist of Pape Matar Sarr and Yves Bissouma. On the wings, Brennan Johnson and Mathys Tel will bring speed and attacking flair, aiming to stretch the opposition's defense. Dejan Kulusevski will be in the central attacking midfield role. Leading the line for Spurs will be Dominic Solanke, who will serve as the focal point of the attack in Thursday's clash.

European game generated €38 billion in 2023-24 season, study shows

PHOTO: AFP LONDON – Europe's football market grew by 8 per cent in terms of revenue in the 2023-24 season to €38 billion with England's Premier League generating the most, Deloitte said in a study published on June 11. In its Annual Review of Football Finance, Deloitte said the top five leagues – Premier League, German Bundesliga, Spanish La Liga, Italian Serie A and French Ligue 1 – generated €20.4 billion in revenue, an increase of 4 per cent. Premier League clubs had the highest revenue of Europe's top leagues at £6.3 billion. However, the traditional 'Big Six' clubs in England's top flight reported lower average revenue growth (3 per cent) than other clubs that were in the Premier League in both the 2023-24 and 2022-23 seasons (11 per cent). The study said the growth was largely driven by expansion of clubs' commercial offerings, which also led to the teams cumulatively generating more than £2 billion in commercial revenue for the first time. "A focus on stadia development and diversification of commercial revenues led to growth across the European football market in the 2023-24 season," said Tim Bridge, lead partner in Deloitte's Sports Business Group. "However, clubs and leagues cannot afford to take their eye off the ball as new challenges, including an evolving regulatory landscape and changing fan behaviours, arise. The pressure is mounting for more clubs to drive additional revenue at the same time as managing rising costs. "More so than ever, leaders and owners must recognise the great responsibility they have of managing these businesses, capturing the historic essence of a football club while honouring its unrivalled role as a community asset for generations to come." Fan protests have become a common sight at Premier League stadiums over rising ticket prices and the squeezing out of local supporters to make way for more tourists willing to spend more for a special matchday experience. 'There can be no doubt that the system in English football is under strain,' added Bridge. 'Repeated reports of fan unrest at ticket price and accessibility demonstrate the challenge in the modern era of balancing commercial growth with the historic essence of a football club's role and position in society.' There is also uncertainty over the implications of an incoming independent regulator for England's top five leagues. And for the past two seasons, all three promoted clubs from the Championship have been immediately relegated back to the second tier. 'The financial implications of the 'yo-yo effect' on clubs, their spending, and overall competitiveness are major factors to address in order to continue attracting high levels of investment across the system,' said Bridge. Clubs in Europe's 'Big five' leagues reported an aggregate operating profit (€0.6 billion) for a second successive season, while the aggregate wages/revenue ratio fell from 66 per cent to 64 per cent. Clubs in England's Women's Super League (WSL) jointly generated revenue of £65 million in the 2023-24 season, a 34 per cent rise. Each WSL club had a double-digit increase in revenue, while all 12 clubs reported over £1 million in revenue for the first time, with an average revenue of £5.4 million. "Through developing more robust fan engagement strategies, strong commercial deals and securing central distributions, WSL clubs unlocked a new phase of growth," Deloitte Sports Business group's knowledge and insights lead Jennifer Haskel said. "Plus, as the reporting and attribution of commercial revenue remains inconsistent between clubs, we may be scratching the surface on the value now being generated by the women's game."

Ingebrigtsen launches own running team with brothers and Norwegian athletes
Two-times Olympic champion and distance runner Jakob Ingebrigtsen launched his own running team called the Spring Run Club on Wednesday, along with his brothers and two Norwegian athletes. Norwegian runner Karoline Bjerkeli Grovdal, cross-country skier Marthe Kristoffersen, and Ingebrigtsen's elder brothers Filip and Henrik, also middle distance runners, are part of the team. The brothers said the club will be open to anyone interested in learning more about running, regardless of their experience or their skill level, while athletes will also share their insights, tips and training sessions. "We want to share our knowledge and help grow a global running movement, for everyone that loves running," Jakob Ingebrigtsen said in a statement. "As professional runners, we have received great support from both the federation at the top level and local clubs at the grassroots level. We want to continue collaborating with all of them. "But what has been missing is a global community fully dedicated to the craft and science of running. That's what we're building now." The team will also partner with Norwegian omega-3 producer Smartfish Sports Nutrition AS. "The Ingebrigtsen brothers and Spring Run Club are now shareholders in the company, which has committed to investing a minimum of NOK 30 million ($2.97 million)... over time in operational funding to support the development of the running team," they said in a statement. Smartfish is also set to become one of the leading partners of the new running team. Ingebrigtsen has been a key figure in a trial involving his father, Gjert Ingebrigtsen, after Norwegian police pressed charges last year accusing him of abusing two of his seven children, including Jakob. Norwegian prosecutors are seeking a two-and-a-half-year prison sentence for Gjert, who is accused of abusing his son Jakob and daughter Ingrid, with a verdict expected this month.

Son Heung-min to ‘wait and see' on Tottenham future after Saudi links
South Korea's Son Heung-min waves to fans after the team's win against Kuwait. PHOTO: AFP Son Heung-min to 'wait and see' on Tottenham future after Saudi links SEOUL – Son Heung-min has cast doubt on his Tottenham Hotspur future after saying he will 'wait and see' what happens amid speculation the skipper could move to Saudi Arabia. The South Korean forward has a year left on his contract and has been linked with an exit after helping Spurs end their 17-year trophy drought. 'Rather than saying anything at this moment, I think we should all wait and see what happens,' the 32-year-old told reporters after South Korea's 4-0 World Cup qualifying win over Kuwait on June 10. 'But no matter where I end up, I will always do the best I can. It will never change.' Son lifted the Europa League trophy in May to claim his first piece of silverware with Tottenham after helping his team beat Manchester United 1-0 in Bilbao. Despite the victory, Spurs have since fired coach Ange Postecoglou following a dismal Premier League campaign that saw them finish one place above the relegation zone. Son came under pressure after a series of underwhelming displays but he vowed to come back stronger next season, wherever he is playing. 'I know people may say I had a disappointing year but personally, this was a special season because you play football to win, and only winners are remembered,' added Son, who joined Tottenham from Germany's Bayer Leverkusen in 2015. 'I wasn't in my best form for most of the season but hopefully I will be in better condition going into the new season.' Meanwhile, Brentford manager Thomas Frank is set to replace Postecoglou, according to multiple reports. Frank, who has been in charge of the Bees since 2018, led Brentford back to the top flight in 2021 after an absence of 74 years and has established the west London club in the Premier League. Hiring the Dane, whose contract runs until 2027, would cost Spurs around £10 million in compensation. South Korea booked their place at next year's World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico with 2-0 win over Iraq last week. They finished top of Group B in the Asian third round of qualifiers and were unbeaten in 10 games. 'I know people just assume that we should come out of Asia with ease but nothing has been easy,' said Son, who came on as a 75th-minute substitute against Kuwait. 'I think we were able to finish well here because everyone came together with the same goal of never losing a match.' Off the pitch, two South Koreans have been charged with blackmail or attempted blackmail targeting Son, the prosecution said on June 11, with one of them reportedly his ex-girlfriend. The suspects – a woman in her 20s surnamed Yang and a man in his 40s surnamed Yong – have been in custody since May. The two have now been 'formally charged and will stand trial while in custody', a spokesperson for the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office told AFP. According to the Yonhap news agency and other local media, Yang is Son's ex-girlfriend and allegedly extorted 300 million won from him by sending a foetal ultrasound image and threatening to go public with claims that she was pregnant with his child last year. It remains unclear whether Yang – who local media have speculated terminated the alleged pregnancy – was actually carrying the star footballer's child. Prosecutors believe Yang later attempted to extort an additional 70 million won from Son this year in collaboration with Yong, with whom she was in a romantic relationship, according to Yonhap. The pair allegedly made the threats by saying they would expose the alleged pregnancy and abortion to the media. Son refused to pay the 70 million won and filed a criminal complaint against the two.
