Spurs win with Sarr and own goal by Martinez
Tottenham beat Manchester United in the match of the 2nd round English Premier League — 1:0.
In the first half, despite 21 joint shots on goal, there were no goals. But the hosts managed to soak the score immediately after the break – Senegalese Pape Matar Sarr became the hero of the episode.
Despite all the attempts, Ten Hag’s team could not oppose anything to the opponent. And the Spurs managed to consolidate the advantage at the end of the game. The goal was made by fresh players – Ivan Perisic (assist) and Ben Davis.
Thus, coach Ange Postekoglu, who led Tottenham this summer, won his first victory in the Premier League.
In the third round, the Londoners will play against Bournemouth Ilya Zabarny. Manchester United on the same day, August 26, will host Nottingham Forest.
