Manchester United 2-0 Tottenham

Goals: Fred (47^e) and B. Fernandes (69^e)

The Hugo Lloris wall ended up giving way.

Largely dominating, Manchester United has long come up against a great Hugo Lloris, waiting for the second half to bring down Tottenham (2-0). From the first moments, the doorman of the Blues shows that he is very warm by diverting the shot from Fred under the bar (7^e), before seeing Antony’s roll touch the outside of his post (10^e). The Red Devils dominate the debates, and the Niçois must still intervene in front of Rashford (21^e), on a powerful free kick from Fernandes (23^e) or to deflect a volley from Shaw (24^e). Unhappy to see his last rampart so much in demand, Antonio Conte throws his tantrum on the sidelines, but we have to wait for the last moments of this first act to see the Spurs frame finally, via Kane in a closed angle (45^e).

After having tried their luck nineteen times in 45 minutes, the Mancunians hit the mark on the first after the recovery: Fred sees his interior deflected at the bottom by Davies (1-0, 47^e). Rashford’s number does not move the Lloris wall, still solid despite everything (49^e), but who has to give in again against Fernandes, who wins the skylight (2-0, 69^e). A last horizontal from their goalkeeper in front of Rashford (74^e), and the Londoners lay down their arms, leaving their hosts back within firing range of the Premier League top 4.

Devils (red) do not go into detail.
