TheSportsRush brings to you Manchester United vs Tottenham highlights, as Tottenham registered a comprehensive 3-0 victory at Old Trafford.
It had been one of the most adrenaline-pumping performances by Manchester United in quite some time. Jose Mourinho’s side were easily the best side in the first half, but it all changed in a matter of minutes when the sides came out for the final 45 minutes of the game.
Poor defending from set pieces and failure to man-mark resulted in United conceding two quick goals early in the second half. Mourinho’s men threw everything at Tottenham but failed to put the ball inside the net. Lukaku and Lingard missed easy chances and Paul Pogba looked sloppy as Tottenham registered a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford.
Luke Shaw and Fred were the rare delights for Manchester United on a day they would prefer to forget.
Here are some tweets from the match:

Mourinho went to Shaw. He patted him on the back. His best player since the season began because he worked hard, took his manager’s criticism on board and got on with it when everyone had written him off at United. If only more had responded like that.

Sacking Mou alone won’t solve United’s problems. A few heads have to roll at board level.

Lol at everyone who put United defenders in their fantasy league teams after seeing our defensive record last season.

Lucas Moura has put in an absolute shift tonight, didn’t give United’s defence any time on the ball and always looked a threat, what a signing this new player is 👀🤣👏🏽#MUNTOT

Pogba just apologised to our stand and Mourinho stayed on the pitch long to applaud the support from the fans… for some reason it felt like a goodbye?! WTF?!

It must be absolutely exhausting for Manchester United fans to keep pretending they like Jose Mourinho.
