Match Report

Marcus Rashford then doubles the lead on the cusp of half-time after Spurs had crafted a few chances to equalise, but the England star was found on the halfway line with a brilliant ball from Fernandes, leaving the forward to shoot coolly past Fraser Forster for United's second.

Pedro Porro needed just 10 second half minutes to pull one back for the hosts after a bright start to the second period, with the Spanish right back firing home with the outside of his boot from the edge of the box, before Fernandes hit the bar just seconds later.

But the equaliser came on  79 minutes with the reliable partnership of Harry Kane and Son Heung-min linking up once more for the South Korean to tap home the leveller with little over 10 minutes to play as Spurs fought their way back into contention.
