Tottenham and Manchester United played out a 1-1 draw on Friday night in a behind closed doors match due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
Tottenham's January signing, Steven Bergwijn, opened the scoring for Jose Mourinho's side against Manchester United with a well-taken strike after a counterattack that left Harry Maguire clueless as he failed to track down, before United star boy Bruno Fernandes levelled from the penalty spot towards the end of the match.
Tottenham's starting line-up included Lloris, Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Davies; Sissoko, Winks, Bergwijn, Lamela, Son; Kane while Man United benched Paul Pogba and started with De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Fred, McTominay, Fernandes; Martial, James, Rashford. Nigerian striker Ighalo was left on the bench alongside Matic and Lingard.
Tottenham held on towards the end despite pressure heaped on their defence but a goal from Fernandes' penalty after Pogba was tripped on the byline ten minutes from the end of the match, ensured the match ended in a draw.
