Manchester United Suffers Disappointing Loss to Tottenham Hotspur
Manchester United’s hopes of advancing in the Carabao Cup were dashed as they suffered a 4-3 loss to Tottenham Hotspur. Altay Bayindir had a game to forget, making crucial errors that contributed to Tottenham’s victory.
Player Ratings
Altay Bayindir – 2
Bayindir’s performance was marred by mistakes, including parrying Pedro Porro’s effort into the path of Dominic Solanke, who scored the opening goal. He also allowed a corner from Son Heung-min to fly all the way in, sealing Tottenham’s win.
Victor Lindelof – 4
Lindelof struggled to keep up with Tottenham’s front line and was caught slacking, eventually coming off injured just before halftime.
Leny Yoro – 5
Yoro was physically targeted by Solanke in the first half but stood up to him and Son Heung-min fairly well.
Lisandro Martinez – 3
Martinez had a disastrous game, directly assisting Tottenham’s second goal and being easily beaten by Solanke for the third goal.
Diogo Dalot – 6
Dalot was the only United defender who had a decent game, delivering solid crosses and switches in play while pressing the Tottenham backline.
Christian Eriksen – 6
Eriksen was inches away from scoring the equalizer at 1-0 but was blocked by Yves Bissouma. He overhit several corners but was clapped off by the home fans when he made way for Kobbie Mainoo.
Manuel Ugarte – 4
Ugarte conceded several fouls and drew a booking, almost poking Kulusevski’s cross into his own net.
Noussair Mazraoui – 5
Mazraoui anticipated a difficult evening against Son, who was excellent going forward. He was booked for catching Djed Spence.
Antony – 4
Antony had a nervy start, losing the ball in a dangerous position and putting United under pressure. He was too casual on the ball and gave the home fans something to laugh about every time he lost possession.
Bruno Fernandes – 6
Fernandes did his creative job when he could, putting Hojlund through inside 11 minutes. He assisted Zirkzee’s goal and drew a booking for Sarr.
Rasmus Hojlund – 5
Hojlund rarely got a sniff, working on the counter early on and weak on the ball when he did receive it.
Substitutes
Jonny Evans – 4
Evans replaced Lindelof but struggled, allowing Solanke to drive the ball through his legs for 3-0. He scored a late consolation goal with a header from a corner.
Kobbie Mainoo – 6
Mainoo brought much-needed composure to the game, waiting on the sidelines before Solanke tripled Spurs’ lead.
Joshua Zirkzee – 6
Zirkzee had United’s first attempt on target in the 61st minute but his header was well kept out by Fraser Forster. He gave United hope when he made it 3-1 a minute later from Forster’s blunder.
Amad Diallo – 8
Diallo’s introduction turned the game around for United. He made it 3-2 when his pressing forced Forster into another error. He also fed the ball to Fernandes, who assisted Zirkzee’s goal.
Alejandro Garnacho – 5
Garnacho chased every ball down but lost points due to the impact of the earlier substitutions.
