Solanke’s Stoppage-Time Goal Earns 10-Man Tottenham Draw at Man United

Dominic Solanke struck in stoppage time as 10-man Tottenham rescued a point at Manchester United on Saturday, denying the home side what would have been a much-needed Premier League victory.

United had produced an underwhelming performance but appeared set to take the three points before Solanke’s late intervention. His goal ensured Tottenham left with a draw despite playing the closing stages with 10 men.

The result provided a lift for Spurs, who moved off the bottom of the Premier League table. For Manchester United, it was another frustrating afternoon, with a morale-boosting win slipping away at the end.
