Following their respective teams' participation in the UEFA Europa League during the week, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are playing in the Premier League at Old Trafford. As Manchester United looked for the counter, Marcus Rashford overruns it due to a lack of communication with teammate Alejandro Garnacho. Micky Van de Ven then countered towards the Manchester United half, running on and on and eventually passing from the byline enabling Brennan Johnson an easy tap-in.
Manchester United cannot withstand the intensity displayed by the Tottenham Hotspur media. Manuel Ugarte has already had his pockets taken twice, with the most recent incident almost giving James Maddison an opportunity. The Spurs attackers have an abundance of space to work with as they try to extend their slim lead.
