Manchester United suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday afternoon, as captain Bruno Fernandes saw red in a dismal performance at Old Trafford.
The match began disastrously for the hosts, with Spurs taking control early on. Micky van de Ven’s impressive solo run set up Brennan Johnson for an easy tap-in, putting Tottenham ahead.

United struggled to mount a response and were outclassed on their home turf throughout the game.
Goalkeeper Andre Onana made several crucial saves to prevent an even larger deficit, but United’s problems worsened when Fernandes was shown a straight red card for a reckless knee-high challenge on James Maddison just before the half-time whistle.
Tottenham capitalised immediately after the break, with Dejan Kulusevski volleying in a second goal. Dominic Solanke added to United’s misery later on, poking in a third to seal the rout.
The result left Manchester United fans frustrated, with sections of the crowd booing the team off the pitch at full-time, as the Red Devils’ performance was well below expectations.
