Man Utd beat Spurs, West Ham maintain top-four charge By Reuters

Posted by admin

in News

By Martyn Herman LONDON (Reuters) - Manchester United underlined their 'comeback kings' tag by recovering from a first-half deficit to beat Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 on Sunday and cement their place in the Premier League's top four.

But they responded to going behind to Son Heung-min's opener to win 3-1 with goals by Fred, Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood. Victory 'narrowed' Manchester City's lead to 11 points but more importantly...

in News

By Martyn Herman LONDON (Reuters) -Late goals by Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood sealed Manchester United a 3-1 comeback win against Tottenham Hotspur, cementing their place in the Premier League top-four and leaving the London club's hopes of joining them looking slim on Sunday.

The second half was far more lively with United dominant. Fred equalised from close range just before the hour-mark and Cavani then made...
