TOTTENHAM (4-2-3-1) TEAM AVERAGE 6.5

HUGO LLORIS 7

Excellent save to deny Martial having denied Rashford with his feet in the first half.

SERGE AURIER 6

Got forward well to threaten down the right but could not always make it count.

DAVINSON SANCHEZ 6

Got away with poor defensive header in the first half but otherwise a sound display.

ERIC DIER 6.5

Gave away the penalty with a foul on Pogba but otherwise with a solid performanc­e.

BEN DAVIES 6

Held United at bay and produced a vital touch in the first half to thwart James.

MOUSSA SISSOKO 6.5

Did not put a foot wrong in the holding role for an attack-minded Tottenham side.

HARRY WINKS 6

Had his hands full marking Fernandes but made a decent enough job of it.

STEVEN BERGWIJN 8

Scored with a fine solo goal and almost set up a second with a fantastic cross for Son.

ERIK LAMELA 7

Combative approach. Got in good positions but was sometimes lacking in the final pass.

SON HEUNG-MIN 6.5

Had scored goals in his last five games before injury but most valuable getting back to defend.

HARRY KANE 5.5

First game since New Year’s Day and the skipper was very quiet by his standards.

JOSE MOURINHO 7

Will be disappoint­ed not to hold on for the victory — especially against his old club.

MAN UTD (4-2-3-1) TEAM AVERAGE 5.7

DAVID DE GEA 4.5

Allowed Bergwijn’s shot to go straight through him. Very poor for a keeper of his quality.

AARON WAN-BISSAKA 5.5

A little loose in possession and didn’t pose his usual threat going forward.

HARRY MAGUIRE 4.5

United skipper was left trailing in Bergwijn’s wake for the goal and he seemed rusty.

VICTOR LINDELOF 5.5

Looked uncomforta­ble against Tottenham’s pace on the counter-attack and struggled at times.

LUKE SHAW 6

Loose header in the build-up to Tottenham’s goal put United in unnecessar­y trouble.

SCOTT McTOMINAY 6.5

Energetic as ever after the enforced break, consistent­ly hunting the ball down.

FRED 6.5

Kept his place despite Pogba’s return from injury and it was another tidy performanc­e.

DANIEL JAMES 5

Couldn’t make enough of an impression on the game and booked for hacking down Dier.

BRUNO FERNANDES 7.5

United’s creative spark again and stepped up when needed to convert the penalty.

MARCUS RASHFORD 6

The man of the moment looked sharp but he couldn’t convert two first-half chances.

ANTHONY MARTIAL 5.5

Livened up dramatical­ly after the interval following an anonymous first half.

OLE GUNNAR SOLSKJAER 6

Extended his unbeaten run to 12 and will be delighted to avoid defeat against his predecesso­r.

REFEREE JONATHAN MOSS 6

A little lenient — most notably to Lamela — but handled the game with few problems.
