This Sunday, Tottenham extended their good run with a 3-0 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League's MD6.

The international football menu has served up a highly enticing dish for this Sunday afternoon. This is especially true as two Premier League powerhouses are set to take action.

On one side, Manchester United have been quite inconsistent at the start of the season. As a result, their manager Erik ten Hag has a lot of work ahead, although time is certainly not on his side.

On the other hand, we must consider the situation of Tottenham Hotspur, which will do everything in its power to climb back to the top positions at the table.

However, this mission will require a significant performance, given the fierce competition that erupts every season in the Premier League. This means the pressure is immense for both teams, with the weight of expectations clearly in the air.

Old Trafford was dressed for the occasion to witness a match that, on paper, was bound to captivate football lovers. In other words, it was a real test for a United side that knew how difficult it would be to face the London outfit.

The visitors opened the scoring with a well-taken goal from Brennan Johnson, who made the most of a brilliant solo run by Micky van de Ven. The Dutch defender’s blistering pace and sharp vision allowed him to cut through United's defence, setting up Johnson for a clinical finish.

Manchester United's evening went from bad to worse when captain Bruno Fernandes received a red card for a reckless challenge, leaving them down to ten men for the remainder of the match.

Ange Postecoglou's men capitalised on their numerical advantage, dictating the tempo of the game and continuously pressing United's shaky defence. Spurs doubled their lead through Dejan Kulusevski, who found the back of the net after a well-worked team move, and later put the game beyond doubt with a third goal from Dominic Solanke, securing a resounding 3-0 victory.
