Three minutes after the goal, Rashford missed another glorious opportunity when Lloris denied him a third goal. The Englishman could have scored a hatrick on the day.

Cristiano Ronaldo walked off to the dressing room in distress just six minutes before the match ended. The Portuguese is frustrated for lack of game time under Erik ten Hag.

Cristiano only started once in the Premier League in a fixture against Newcastle United. He only made most appearances in the UEFA Europa League fixtures.

Accordingly, the frustration is understandable given that his request to leave Old Trafford was blocked only for him to sit on the bench.

The match finished at 2-0 to Manchester United. The Red Devils registered 28 shots and 10 shots on target. Although Spurs had few moments but the home side was dominant.

On the other hand, Tottenham registered ten shots with only two on target. Antonio Conte’s men faced the highest shots (28) for the first time this season.

The Manchester United vs Tottenham fixture is no doubt the best performance for the Red Devils since the start of the season. Erik ten Hag will demand high level of consistency throughout the season.

The 20-time Premier League champions will now face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the weekend. The Blues are coming from a setback after drawing a goalless draw with Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium.

Starting line-ups:

Manchester United: De Gea, Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Fred, Antony, Bruno, Sancho, Rashford.
