At Old Trafford, Tottenham outperformed Manchester United in a fantastic performance.
Early in the game, Hojlund gave them the lead with an overpowering strike.
After recovering from surgery, Richarlison, who has been in excellent goal-scoring form, gave Spurs a response over fifteen minutes later.
However, Rashford put an elegant finish on a United break in the 40th minute to give United their lead back.
Spurs got off to a great start in the second half. Shortly after the break, Timo Werner and Rodrigo Bentancur combined to score.
After winning the ball on the left, the new summer addition performed a fantastic job setting up Bentancur for a crucial pass that allowed him to score with a spectacular finish.
And as the two celebrated the goal, the Uruguayan was quick to recognize Werner’s assist, yelling, “Timo! Timo!” and pointing at him.

The former Chelsea player settling in so fast is fantastic. Considering that he has only attended two team sessions, he gave a fantastic performance.
