What happened in the match between Manchester United and Tottenham?
Manchester United have beaten Tottenham by a goal to nil. Perhaps a little message from Mourinho there too. Some of his critics down the lens. Five home wins in a row in the Premier League. The 100% record is intact. Let's hear it for Man of the Match to Mania Matic and the goalscorer Anthony Martial with Jeff Shreves.
Antony, Nemanja first. Just how significant is that result?
It was very important for us against a very good team. Tottenham is one of the best teams in the league and thanks to this guy we managed to score a goal and to win this very difficult game. I want to say congratulations to the opponents. They were very, very good today. It was a great game. I think the fans enjoyed it. The most important thing is that we took three points and we have to be focused now on the next game, which is also hard for us.
Anthony, four times you've come on a substitute and scored, but was that the most important goal of the lot?
Yes, it's important for us because... We lost the last game. It was important for us to win and I'm happy to score and I hope we win again, Benfica again.
How good was the header from Romelu Lukaku for your goal?
How significant was the victory for Manchester United?
Yes, the manager told me to find the space and I know Lukaku is good with his head and I find the space and I score, so I'm happy.
Particularly in the first half, was it tough for you because Tottenham seem to have more numbers in midfield?
Yeah, they had, I think, a little bit more of the ball in the first half. But we had, I think, more chances, more clear chances than them. As I said, they are great. They play great football. They also played in the last few years great football. But the most important is the result in the end. We managed to win. And if we continue to fight like this, we can compete for the title, of course.
Four goals from the bench, can you go to Jose now and say, boss, I must start the games?
No, me, I want to play. I don't want to be on the bench, but Rashford play good too, so the manager try to give us a chance, so we have to score and give assists.
The fact you've kept your 100% record at home as well, what does that give you?
It's very important. Thanks to our supporters also. They push us during 90 minutes, they support us. And I hope that we will continue like this because it's very important to win these kind of games. As you know, we drop points, as Anthony said, we drop points in the last game. We also draw against Liverpool.
What were the key performances in the match?
So it's very important to win, to win at home especially.
Nemanja, you were named the Premier League man of the match. Anthony, will you present the trophy to Nemanja?
For you, my man. Thank you. Good game. Thank you.
Sorry, what was that? Strutted here at the end. Lenny King, Graeme Souness and Jamie Redknapp with us in the studio. I mean, he called it, Nemanja Matic, a great game. Probably wasn't that, but it's a great result for United, isn't it?
Yeah, it wasn't a great game, but they dug out... a hard-fought victory. Tottenham were good at times, kept the ball really well, ultimately didn't have any end product because we know who was missing. For all the good football, they got a threatened Aguirre-Moore, they didn't do that. But United Showed a resilience today. They weren't very good today with the football. They didn't create a lot.
How did Tottenham's midfield strategy affect the game?
They didn't work, Lloris, very much. But you have to give them great credit for staying at it, and they did that. And then someone goes to sleep at a vital time, and that's what generally decides the game. The back three at Tottenham have been fabulous throughout, but ultimately a couple of them maybe go to sleep at a vital time and it costs them the game.
Harry Kelly, a humongous miss, goes without saying. Did you expect more, though, from Tottenham today?
Er... In terms of creating chances, maybe, yeah. I think the possession was very good. Got into good positions without really testing the goalkeeper. I thought Dele Alli's chance was probably the best chance of the game. I thought at the time he should have maybe went with his head. But, yeah, forward of possession, not enough cutting edge in front of goal.
