Manchester United faced off against Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier today as they looked to secure a good result on the road in the Premier League. The Red Devils made a solid start to the game and managed to get to the half-time break with a goalless scoreline.
Erik ten Hag’s men conceded the opening goal in the 49th minute when Pape Matar Sarr scored for the home team. Lisandro Martinez netted an unfortunate own goal in the 83rd minute as Man United crashed to a 2-0 defeat in the English capital.
