Manchester United suffered a heavy defeat at Old Trafford from its guest Tottenham by three clean goals in the sixth round of the English Premier League.
The guests succeeded in taking the lead through Johnson in the third minute, then Bruno Fernandes received a red card before the end of the first half after a violent intervention.
In the second half, Kulusevski scored the second goal for Spurs in the 77th minute, then Solanke killed the home team’s hopes of a comeback with a third goal in the 77th minute.
The defeat against Tottenham is the second defeat that United has received at Old Trafford this season, after losing to Liverpool 3-0, in addition to being the third in the first 6 matches after the losses of the Reds and Spurs and before that Brighton.
This heavy defeat comes days after a disappointing draw with Dutch Twente in the first round of the Europa League at Old Trafford also 1-1.
United have only managed to score two goals in four games at Old Trafford this season despite the big signings the club made last summer.
Calls for the sacking of coach Erik ten Hag are growing in light of the lack of any significant development at United and the decline in performance and results, as the Red Devils occupy 12th place with only seven points.
Despite United’s management’s assurances of their great confidence in Ten Hag, the option of sacking may be raised if the results continue in this manner, especially since he seems to have lost the confidence of the dressing room.
