Manchester United twice squandered the lead as their terrible Premier League run extended to just one win from six matches.

How it happened

In front of potential part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Manchester United scored early through Rasmus Højlund. 

Richarlison equalized for Spurs, and Marcus Rashford restored United's lead. Cristian Romero's header hit the bar, warning United at halftime. 

Spurs quickly equalized in the second half through a fine finish from returning Uruguay defender Rodrigo Bentancur

Despite Scott McTominay's late chance, neither side could find the winning goal, and the home team held on for a point that did nothing to enhance their disappointing season.
