The match was held at the London derby at the Tothenham Hotspurs stadium, where Mourino and his team welcomes the Red devils (Man utd) into their home. The match kickoff at 5pm, sorry for those that thought the match was scheduled for 5:30pm.
Well for Man utd their striker Anthony Martial can’t be in the game because of the injury he got while on international duty in France, which means we likely saw Edison Cavani till the 90th minutes, meanwhile the England international Marcus Rashford is fit and ready to be in the game again, after sustaining an ankle injury in the match between Man utd & Leister city in the FA CUP.
On the other hand, we saw that Aurier was back in the action in the right back defends for spurs. And their forwards ready for action as well, by that I mean Harry Kane and Son. This two guys have been amazing in the English Premier League.
The match started and spurs were in possession of the ball and kept the game under control and Man utd did the defending as well and were patient to get hold of the ball which they did, and it ended in a goal scored by Edison Cavani and assisted by Scot Mctomminay. Which was reviewed by the Video assistant referee and the goal was disallowed because Mctomminay fouled Son by swinging his fingers into his eyes before providing the assist for the goal.

But it was not quite long before Man utd bounce back on the counter attack were Edison Cavani strike the ball 45 minutes and was blocked by the goal keeper, Illoris but couldn’t keep it in and provided the opportunity for Fred to score his first goal of the season after two and a halve years he scored a goal for the club.
