← Back to Match CentreMan Utd v Tottenham

Dominic Solanke scored a stoppage-time equaliser as ten-man Tottenham rescued a 1-1 draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Bryan Mbeumo’s 73rd-minute opener appeared to have put United on course for victory, particularly when Spurs substitute Rodrigo Bentancur was sent off five minutes later.

But Solanke struck from Sandro Tonali’s assist in the second minute of added time to earn the visitors a point.
