Tottenham Hotspur emerged victorious with a resounding 2-0 win over Manchester United at White Hart Lane on Saturday.

The triumph marked a significant milestone for manager Ange Postecoglou, securing his first win in charge of the team.

The encounter between Spurs and United was characterized by its fast-paced and chaotic nature, with both teams creating numerous chances throughout the game.

The deadlock was finally shattered in the 49th minute when Pape Matar Sarr, displaying impeccable composure, drove the ball high into the net from close range, igniting the cheers of the home crowd.

Despite the intensity and constant back-and-forth between the teams, Spurs managed to solidify their lead in the 83rd minute.

Ivan Perisic’s precise cross took a deflection off Ben Davies before finding the back of the net via Lisandro Martinez, securing Tottenham’s victory and sparking jubilation among the ecstatic home supporters.

The match showcased thrilling attacking football, with both sides hitting the woodwork multiple times. Pedro Porro and Luke Shaw’s deflection were unlucky not to find the net for Spurs in the first half, while Antony’s effort struck the upright for Manchester United. Guglielmo Vicario, Tottenham’s new goalkeeper, pulled off a sensational save from Casemiro, and Bruno Fernandes missed a golden opportunity by heading wide of an open goal in the first half.

The game was not without its contentious moments, as both sides had penalty appeals turned down. Cristian Romero’s handling of the ball and the subsequent incident involving Martinez led to fervent appeals, but it was ultimately the attacking intent of Tottenham that proved decisive.
