Last May, Tottenham Hotspur triumphed over Manchester United in the Europa League final to claim the championship. However, today, Ruben Amorim’s side was on the brink of avenging that loss on Tottenham’s own turf. In a match held at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the home side initially took a 2-1 lead. Yet, in the dying moments, Tottenham conceded two quick goals, threatening to lose the game. Thankfully, Matthijs de Ligt’s last-gasp header allowed Manchester United to escape defeat.
The 11th round of the English Premier League ended in a 2-2 draw, with both teams sharing the spoils, each claiming one point.
In the 32nd minute, Bryan Mbeumo scored Tottenham’s first goal, leaving Manchester United players trailing as they went into the half-time break. This had the home crowd frustrated, as they were hopeful of securing their third home victory in a row.
However, the second half offered a glimmer of hope. In the 84th minute, substitute Mathis Tel levelled the score for United. Then, in the first minute of stoppage time, a deflected shot from Richarlison appeared to put Tottenham 2-1 ahead, seemingly securing a home win.
But the drama was far from over. In the sixth minute of added time, a towering header from Matthijs de Ligt brought United level, ensuring they maintained their unbeaten streak.
