In the 25th round of the English Premier League, Manchester United hosted Tottenham Hotspur and secured a convincing 2-0 victory. The Red Devils took full control of the match - order in defense, struggle in midfield, and accuracy in attack.
In the first half, the score opened in the 38th minute: Mbeumo defeated the opposing goalkeeper, shaking Old Trafford. This goal also changed the game's rhythm in United's favor: the team kept pace, maintained pressure, and tried not to let the opponent into dangerous zones.
In the second half, Tottenham made substitutions to return to action, but the decisive moment came in the 81st minute. Team leader Bruno Fernandes, with his proven skill, scored the second goal, effectively securing three points. After this, the outcome of the meeting became practically clear.
One of the most controversial points of the match was the 29-minute suspension: Cristian Romero received a red card, and the visitors were forced to play less than a single half. This factor further enhanced United's dominance.
