10-man Tottenham strike back to hold Man Utd
Tottenham Hotspur secured a 1-1 draw against Manchester United after Dominic Solanke scored a stoppage-time header. Despite playing with ten men following a red card for Rodrigo Bentancur, Tottenham managed to pressure Manchester United manager Michael Carrick.
Why it matters
The result adds significant pressure to Manchester United's management following a poor start to the Premier League season.
Dominic Solanke rescued a 1-1 draw for 10-man Tottenham to ramp up the pressure on Manchester United boss Michael Carrick on Saturday.
Solanke's stoppage time header edged Spurs off the foot of the Premier League table after it seemed like they would pay a heavy price for not taking their chances in a dominant display at Old Trafford.
Bryan Mbeumo put United in front against the run of play 17 minutes from time before Rodrigo Bentancur was shown a straight red card.
But not for the first time this season, Carrick's men failed to make a man advantage count.
Manchester City won 1-0 at Old Trafford last month despite playing for more than an hour with 10 men.
Solanke stooped to head in Sandro Tonali's cross to leave United with just six points from their opening six league games.
