United have already lost three times in the “Premier League” by five goals, the most recent of which was against Manchester City 1-6 at home in 2011, in addition to two 0-5 losses against Newcastle in 1996 and Chelsea in 1999, while they lost 0-7 twice. Previously in the first division in 1926 against Blackburn and 1930 against Aston Villa, and once in the second division against Wolverhampton in 1931.
Mourinho and his former team, United, fought in a very tense atmosphere with his predecessor Solskjaer, who succeeded the Portuguese in late 2018 after a series of poor results for the team, after the statement issued by the Norwegian after the dramatic victory over Brighton last weekend, 3-2 in a match during which he hit The last three sticks in the goal five times, by saying, “We must be happy because Jose is not here to measure the goal.”
Solskjaer was referring in his speech to what his predecessor did during the midweek match of Tottenham against North Macedonian Skandia (3-1) in the third preliminary round of the “Europa League” competition. Mourinho, before the match, measured the height of the goal, to discover that it was shorter than the legal measurement.
Solskjaer’s statement did not go unnoticed by Mourinho, who said, “I understand that the goal measurement is not important to him. For him what matters is the measurement of the 18-yard area (the penalty area), I think he prefers to be 22 yards! For him that would be better.” , Referring to the penalty kick from which United scored the winning goal against Brighton in the tenth minute of stoppage time, after the latter equalized 2-2 in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
Crazy start
It was a coincidence that United opened the scoring Sunday against Tottenham with a penalty kick after 29 seconds, which would have increased Mourinho’s resentment had his team not responded in the best way by scoring two quick goals, before the dismissal of French striker Anthony Martial caused the match to completely divert the course in favor of Tottenham, who benefited. Quite a wholesale mistake of his host’s defense, especially from Harry Maguire.
The start was crazy, as United took the lead after a penalty awarded against Colombian Davinson Sanchez in favor of Martial, and Bruno Fernandes took it successfully (1).
But after a fatal double mistake by Maguire in dealing with the ball with his head, it fell in front of Frenchman Tangi Ndombele, who followed it into the net (4).
And from a free kick by Harry Kane quickly to South Korean Son Heung-min, the latter penetrated the area before he fired the ball to the left of De Chia (7).
Things became more complicated for United after the referee raised the red card in the face of Marcial for slapping Argentine Eric Lamela in the 28th minute while executing a corner kick for the guests.
Soon, Tottenham translated the numerical advantage with a goal by Kane after another defensive mistake by Solskjaer’s players, which allowed the London team to cut the ball at the outskirts of the region, reaching Son, who passed it to the captain of the English national team and hit it in the net of De Gea (30).
United continued their very shaky defensive performance, especially Maguire, who passed the ball between his legs after a cross from Ivory Coast Serge Aurier, who penetrated on the left side, and the ball reached Son, who caught it directly from a narrow angle at the near post in the net of De Gea (37), leading the league scorer Six goals so far.
With this result, Tottenham became the first team to visit United four times in the first half of a league match at the “Red Devils” stadium, since November 1957 when the London club itself achieved this in a match that ended in its favor in the end 4-3, according to “Opta” statistics.
The London guest dealt the knockout blow to United at the start of the second half by adding the fifth goal after a group game and an elaborate pass by Dane Pierre-Emil Hoyberg (51), before Kane added the sixth from a penalty kick caused by Bogba (79), confirming the second victory and seventh point for Spears. And the second defeat for United, who stuck at 3 points.
