Manchester United 1 Tottenham Hotspur 0

Premier League | 28 October 2017 | Old Trafford | Attendance: 75,034 | Scorer: Martial 82

A late second-half strike from super-sub Anthony Martial secured a significant 1-0 win over fellow title challengers Tottenham Hotspur in wet conditions at Old Trafford.

Martial, who replaced Marcus Rashford midway through the second half, latched on to Romelu Lukaku's flick from David De Gea's long kick to give the Reds three hard-earned points.

Jose Mourinho opted to go for three at the back as Phil Jones and Chris Smalling partnered the returning Eric Bailly in central defence.
