Manchester United beat 10-man Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 to cement their place in the top four for another weekend. A 29th minute sending off for Cristian Romero left a despondent Spurs facing an uphill task, one they couldn't manage as they failed to win in their seventh straight Premier League game.
Romero's sending off was the first real talking point of the match, as he slid in, studs up into Casemiro's shin. The Spurs captain didn't argue as the referee brandished a straight red and will now miss a further four games (three for violent conduct, one for it being his second red of the season). For an injury-wreaked Spurs side, that was just the news they didn't want to hear.
Bryan Mbeumo soon made them pay on the scoreboard too, running onto a cleverly worked set-piece routine as Bruno Fernandes passed it to Kobbie Mainoo, who teed up Mbeumo for a pass into the far post from an unmarked position just inside the Spurs box.
United kept knocking on the door till Diogo Dalot's cross flew over Benjamin Sesko's head and onto Bruno's shin... cleverly, he did not attempt to take an awkward shot instead allowing it to bounce onto his shin as he directed it into far post.
Benjamin Sesko came on late to miss a glorious chance after an Amad and Bruno led counter ended up with the United captain crossing to Sesko in the box, but in acres he meekly headed it to Vicario's hands.
After the match, Bruno was all praise for manager Michael Carrick, as he made it four wins in four since returning to the dugout, a record that Ruben Amorim never matched in his one and a half years at the club.
