Manchester United 1-6 Tottenham: Player Ratings as Spurs Humiliate 10-Man Red Devils
Tottenham humiliated Manchester United at Old Trafford, thrashing the ten-man Red Devils 6-1 with Harry Kane and Son Heung-min both grabbing braces.
The game got off to a ludicrous start with three goals being scored inside seven minutes. First, Bruno Fernandes scored from the penalty spot before Spurs hit back with goals from Tanguy Ndombele and Son.
On the half hour mark, United were reduced to 10 men after Anthony Martial was dismissed for clashing with Erik Lamela. Seconds later, Kane made it 3-1. Son then added his second and Tottenham's fourth.
The one way traffic continued in the second half with Serge Aurier grabbing a goal five minutes after the break. 13 minutes from time, Spurs scored a sixth when Kane smashed home from the penalty spot.
Here are 90min's player ratings from a momentous occasion at Old Trafford...
Manchester United
1. Goalkeeper & Defenders
David de Gea (GK) - 4/10 - Conceded six. Not really his fault but still, he conceded six.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka (RB) - 4/10 - The best of United's defenders, which is a bit like being best cold and flu symptom.
Eric Bailly (CB) - 1/10 - Pitiful, embarrassing, disgusting defending. Was partly or wholly culpable for all of Spurs' first four goals.
Harry Maguire (CB) - 2/10 - Not quite as bad as Bailly but still cataclysmically awful. Form is getting a bit worrying now.
Luke Shaw (LB) - 3/10 - Torn apart down the right-hand side. His challenge on Lucas late on was pure Sunday league.
2. Midfielders
Paul Pogba (CM) - 2/10 - Completely ineffectual. Not tracking his runner for Spurs' fifth goal was criminal as well. Almost as bad as the penalty he gave away.
Nemanja Matic (CM) - 4/10 - A nothing performance. Hauled off at half time.
Bruno Fernandes (CM) - 6/10 - Another penalty to add to his collection. Did very little else though and was substituted at half time to save his legs.
3. Forwards
Marcus Rashford (LW) - 5/10 - Missed a golden opportunity early on. Afterwards was starved as service.
Anthony Martial (ST) - 3/10 - Look, it may have been soft, but raising your hands to an opponent in 2020 is unbelievably stupid. At least he won his side a penalty.
Mason Greenwood (RW) - 4/10 - Did not getting any joy going forward and was hooked with 20 minutes to go.
4. Substitutes
Scott McTominay - 4/10
Fred - 4/10
Donny van de Beek - N/A
5. Goalkeeper & Defenders
Hugo Lloris (GK) - 6/10 - Did not save the penalty and (unsurprisingly) had almost nothing to do thereafter.
Serge Aurier (RB) - 9/10 - The complete full-back performance. Did not put a foot wrong defensively and pushed forward with great success, even scoring a fine goal.
Davinson Sanchez (CB) - 6/10 - Caught out pretty badly for the penalty but did not do too much else wrong.
Eric Dier (CB) - 7/10 - Extremely easy day at the office. Could've pulled up a lawn chair in the second half.
Sergio Reguilon (LB) - 7/10 - A promising debut. He pushed on menacingly when he had to and sat in and relaxed when he didn't.
6. Midfielders
Moussa Sissoko (CM) - 7/10 - Got through a lot of miles and broke up play nicely.
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (CM) - 8/10 - Kept things neat and tidy at the base of the midfield.
Tanguy Ndombele (CM) - 8/10 - Scored his side's opening goal and kept on trying even when the game was won.
7. Forwards
Erik Lamela (RW) - 7/10 - Going down after the slightest touch from Martial was very naughty. Saying that, getting the Frenchman dismissed played a huge role in his side's win. A master of the dark arts.
Harry Kane (ST) - 9/10 - Creativity in abundance and took his goal in clinical fashion. His strong start ot the season continues.
Heung min-Son (LW) - 9/10 - Devastating performance. Having him fighting fit again is a huge boost for Spurs. Only downside was that he couldn't complete his hat trick.
8. Substitutes
Lucas Moura - 6/10
Dele Alli - 6/10
Ben Davies - N/A
