FT: Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Spurs take their first win over United in nearly three years!

Another great save by Vicario

90+7' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Varane forces a great save by Vicario with a powerful header from point-blank range. The flag goes up for offside after the play in any regard.

United fans are leaving the stadium.

Scoring change

90+5' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

The powers that be have decreed that Spurs' second goal shall go down as a Lisandro Martinez own goal, a sensible decision.

Poor second half by United

90+3' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

This has been such a poor half from United. Spurs so much more aggressive off the ball and fluid on it.

Really awkward intervention from Martinez on the second goal, but Spurs had a two-vs-one advantage in the box so easily.

Lots of stoppage time

90+1' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Nine minutes of stoppage time are added on to the end of the match.

Plenty of time for some late drama!

Solomon makes Spurs debut

89' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Royal and Solomon replace Porro and Kulusevski.

Both sides are now out of subs.

United appeal for penalty

87' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Pellistri goes to ground under contact from Davies in the Spurs box, but no penalty is forthcoming.

Lots for Ten Hag to work on

86' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Great build-up from Spurs with the two substitutes combining and Martinez unfortunately getting the final touch.

An embarrassing performance for United fans this evening and definitely a lot of things for Erik ten Hag to think about.

Final changes for United

85' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Mount and Rashford and replaced by Pellistri and Martial. United are now out of subs.

GOAL! Spurs again!

83' Tottenham 2-0 Manchester United

Perisic sends a lovely early cross into the box, where Davies whiffs on a shot before Martinez inadvertently redirects it into his own net!

A fortunate goal but Spurs certainly deserve this lead.

United searching for equaliser

81' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Mount does good work to elude a defender on the right wing and loft a cross into the box. He fails to find a team-mate, though Casemiro has a chance on the follow-up after Spurs clear the ball.

Spurs playing keep away

79' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Spurs are attempting to kill the game off now, retaining possession deliberately and taking fewer risks.

Sarr comes off

76' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Spurs' goalscorer Sarr comes off, replaced by Hojbjerg.

Ten Hag's tactical changes

74' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Ten Hag's changes were an attempt to get a grip on this game and stop Spurs from attacking United's right flank.

Bruno Fernandes has shifted wide and Mason Mount has gone to the 10. Several managers at Chelsea enjoyed using Mount as the 10, not for his on-ball qualities, but for how quick he is snaffling the ball from the deepest midfielder on the opposition team.

Ten Hag wants Mount to stop Yves Bissouma from running things.

United playing with fire

73' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Eriksen slips as he hits the ball near the United box. Varane is there to rescue the situation and prevent gifting Spurs a second goal.

Double change for Spurs

70' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Postecoglou responds with his first subs.

Davies replaces Udogie and Perisic comes on for Richarlison.

Spurs dominating second half

69' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

United have looked awful since the half-time break. They don’t look willing to run for each other, to have any creativity. It’s really poor to see.

Triple change for United

66' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Erik ten Hag makes the first subs of the match, bringing on Eriksen, Sancho and Dalot for Garnacho, Wan-Bissaka and Antony.

Bissouma impressing

64' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Bissouma is really impressing at the moment. He eludes a defender at the top of United's box to create room to shoot, but drags his effort wide.

Udogie booked

63' Tottenham 1-0 Manchester United

Udogie becomes the first Spurs player booked for a foul on Antony.
