Tottenham Hotspur disgrace Manchester United at Old Trafford as Fernandes sees red

tottenham hotspur disgrace manchester united

Tottenham thrashed Manchester United at Old Trafford 3-0 on Sunday to mount pressure on their manager Erik ten Hag.

United were outplayed and outpaced in their worst performance of the year as Spurs tore them to pieces. 

Hotspur took the lead on three minutes as Micky van de Ven stripped United’s defence before crossing for Brennan Johnson to drive home at the far post. 

For the next 25 minutes, Spurs dominated with just Andre Onana in United’s goal standing between them and a cricket score. 

Around 42 minutes, things turned sore for United when captain Bruno Fernandes was sent off for a late challenge on James Maddison. He slipped before catching Maddison and was given a red card by referee Chris Kavanaugh. 

The Red Devils were hoping to regroup after halftime, but fell further behind early in the second-half as Dejan Kulusevski converted a deflected cross from Johnson after a long run. 

By this time, it became clear Tottenham would be taking home the points and the result was sealed with a third goal, as Dominic Solanke sent home a kick from Pape Sarr from a corner on 77 minutes. 

The result sees Spurs advance to eighth position on the table, with United now in 12th place.
