Tottenham Thrash Man United in Premier League BloodbathTottenham Thrash Man United in Premier League Bloodbath In a scintillating display of attacking brilliance, Tottenham Hotspur demolished Manchester United 6-1 in a pulsating Premier League encounter at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The Red Devils, who have endured a disappointing season under Erik ten Hag, were completely outplayed by a rampant Tottenham side. From the opening whistle, Spurs dominated possession and created a flurry of chances. Son Heung-min opened the scoring for Tottenham in the seventh minute, capitalizing on a defensive error from Lisandro Martinez. Just three minutes later, Eric Dier doubled the lead with a towering header from a corner. United responded briefly through Anthony Martial in the 38th minute, but it proved to be a false dawn. Tottenham regained control and added two more goals before halftime. Harry Kane scored a clinical penalty after Victor Lindelof brought down Richarlison, and Ivan Perišić made it 4-1 with a stunning long-range effort. The second half was equally one-sided. Richarlison netted Tottenham’s fifth goal in the 69th minute, finishing off a brilliant counterattack. Bryan Gil added the exclamation point in stoppage time, completing the rout with a composed finish. The victory was Tottenham’s biggest win over Manchester United in the Premier League era. It also marked the first time that United had conceded six goals in a league match since 1930. Tottenham’s manager, Antonio Conte, praised his team’s performance, calling it “a perfect day.” He added, “We were aggressive, we created a lot of chances, and we were clinical in front of goal.” On the other hand, ten Hag was left to rue his team’s dismal display. “We were outplayed in every department today,” he said. “I take full responsibility for this result.” The victory moves Tottenham up to third place in the Premier League standings, while Manchester United remain sixth. The match will be long remembered as a night of humiliation for the Red Devils and a triumph for the resurgent Spurs.
