The 2024/2025 season was bizarre and full of epic goals and breath-taking matches from Real Madrid C•F being defeated by F•C Barcelona at four different occasions to John Duran lobbing the ball over Manuel Neuer from 40 Yards!.However, the most astonishing thing was that from Kane to Spurs the ‘curses’ are officially over and the chain of failures have been broken.The history has rewritten itself and this time it has truly shocked every football fan.

Harry Kane: The weight is finally off

Watching Harry Kane lift the Bundesliga trophy wasn’t just about Bayern Munich winning another title it was about a man finally putting down a massive, invisible weight he’d been carrying since his debut. For years, we watched him break every individual record while the memes about his empty trophy cabinet got louder. When Bayern went trophyless the year he joined, it felt cruel, almost like the universe was playing a joke on him. Seeing him finally standing on that podium in May 2025 felt right. It was the moment a world-class player finally got the “thank you” his career deserved, proving that being “cursed” is just a story we tell until someone decides to change it.

Crystal Palace: Heartbeat of South London

But if you want to talk about real human emotion, look at Selhurst Park. Crystal Palace fans have spent 120 years literally generations without ever seeing their captain lift a major trophy. Think about that: grandfathers, fathers, and sons all sharing the same unfulfilled dream. When they beat the Manchester City machine to win the FA Cup, it wasn’t just an upset. It was a 120-year-old dam finally bursting. That victory wasn’t for the pundits or the record books; it was for the fans who showed up every Saturday for a century, expecting nothing and finally getting everything. It was a reminder that in football, the long wait makes the win taste so much sweeter.

Tottenham Paradox: Europe conquered

For 17 years, the “Spursy” label had haunted the club—a nickname for their uncanny ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. On May 21,2025 that label was finally torched in Bilbao. Behind a 42nd-minute strike from Brennan Johnson, Spurs ground out a 1-0 victory over Manchester United to win the UEFA Europa League, their first major trophy since 2008.  

However, in true Spurs fashion, the “exorcism” came with a bizarre twist. While they were hoisting European silverware, the team was spiraling domestically, eventually finishing 17th in premier league. They became the first team in history to win a major European trophy while recording their lowest league finish in 48 years. It was a season that defied every law of footballing logic—proving that while the curse might be broken, the chaos that defines Tottenham Hotspur isn’t going anywhere. As they prepare for the 2026 World Cup, Spurs fans finally have a trophy to boast about, even if they had to survive a relegation scrap to get it.

NewCastle: 70-year old wait finally ends

For the “Toon Army,” the wait wasn’t just a drought—it was a generational sentence. Before March 2025, Newcastle United had not won a major domestic trophy since the 1955 FA Cup. For 70 years, legends like Alan Shearer and Kevin Keegan had come and gone, leaving the trophy cabinet gathering dust.  

That all changed on March 16, at a roaring Wembley Stadium. In a performance defined by grit and local pride, the Magpies defeated Liverpool 2-1 to lift the Carabao Cup. When boyhood fan Dan Burn rose to thunder home the opening header, it felt like the collective energy of the North East pushed the ball into the net. Alexander Isak’s second-half strike sealed the deal, sparking scenes of delirium from St. James’ Park to the banks of the Tyne. This wasn’t just a win for a football team; it was a relief for the fans who were famously loyal through seven decades of heartbreak.
