Tottenham Hotspur’s Premier League title ambitions suffered a major blow as Marcus Rashford’s goal gave Manchester United a 1-0 victory at Wembley on Sunday to maintain caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s perfect start.
Rashford beat Tottenham keeper Hugo Lloris from a tight angle in the 44th minute as rejuvenated United claimed a sixth win from six matches since former striker Solskjaer stepped in following Jose Mourinho’s sacking.
Tottenham had 11 shots on target in the second half but could find no way past United’s inspired Spanish keeper David De Gea who produced superb saves to deny Dele Alli, Harry Kane and Toby Alderweireld.
