Tottenham Clinch Dramatic Comeback Win Over Manchester UnitedTottenham Clinch Dramatic Comeback Win Over Manchester United Tottenham Hotspur produced a stunning second-half comeback to snatch a 3-2 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday evening. The hosts took an early lead through Cristiano Ronaldo’s deflected effort, but Tottenham responded with two goals in quick succession from Heung-min Son and Éric Dier to turn the game on its head. Ronaldo then levelled for United with a trademark header before half-time, but it was Tottenham who had the final say. Harry Kane, who had earlier hit the crossbar, found the winner with a header from Sergio Reguilón’s cross in the 73rd minute. The win lifted Tottenham into seventh place in the Premier League table, while United remain in fifth. First Half United started brightly and took the lead in the 12th minute when Ronaldo’s shot from distance was deflected into the net off Ben Davies. Tottenham gradually grew into the game and equalised in the 35th minute when Son found the bottom corner with a low drive. Just four minutes later, Dier headed home Son’s corner to put Tottenham in front. United responded well to going behind and pulled level in the 39th minute when Ronaldo headed home Bruno Fernandes’ free-kick. Second Half The second half was a more cagey affair, with both teams struggling to create clear-cut chances. However, Tottenham took the lead again in the 73rd minute when Kane headed home Reguilón’s cross from close range. United pushed for an equaliser in the closing stages, but Tottenham held on for a dramatic victory. Post-Match Reaction Tottenham manager Antonio Conte was delighted with his team’s performance. “We had a difficult start to the game, but we showed great character and determination to come back and win,” he said. “It was a great performance from the whole team, but I am particularly pleased with Heung-min Son and Harry Kane.” United manager Ralf Rangnick was disappointed with his team’s second-half performance. “We played well in the first half, but we lost our way in the second half,” he said. “We made too many mistakes and Tottenham punished us. We need to learn from this and improve.”
