Manchester united welcomed Spurs to old Trafford and as many did not expect, Carrick’s team was on the back foot for majority of the first half.
Spurs looked like a different animal and played with much energy as compared to united who were rather adamant and reluctant in play.
Spurs had many of the most chances in the half as they were all, not converted much to the dislike of De zebri.
Dominic Solanke in particular had the majority of the chances for spurs but the best chance came through Kudus who fired wide despite a shout from gray who was in a much better goal scoring position.
In the second half united kept pulling the string and in the 73rd minute Brian Mbeumo’s shot found the bottom corner to give united the lead.
Few moments later an incident occurred after a violent tackle to Bruno Fernandez that saw him down to the ground.
Tensions then escalated between Luke Shaw and Van De Ven which saw Van head butt Shaw deemed as violent conduct by the referee thus direct red card.
With the arrival of Baleba united seemed a bit in control of the game but spurs still continued to pose a threat.
They were rewarded as finally Solanke header travelled from Tonali’s cross found its way past Lemmens to set the score even at the added time.
Spurs held their nerves cool even after continuous attacks from united to ensure the they salvaged a point from a losing position.
