The most complete performance of the season? Erik ten Hag is proud of his team after beating Spurs!

But they failed to open the scoring in the first half. The second 45 minutes followed a similar pattern but this time the Red Devils opened the scoring through Fred in the 47th minute. Bruno Fernandes then doubled their advantage with a 69th-minute strike.
