Thank you for joining me for this match! Manchester United were bright in the first half but they faded and Tottenham started to shine. Sarr scored his first Spurs goal and Martinez’ own goal ensured the hosts secured all three points to give new manager Ange Postecoglou his first Premier League win. Catch up with the match with the report below. Make sure you keep up to date with the Premier League action today, I’ll be back tomorrow with the Women’s World Cup final! I’ll see you then, have a good Saturday!

Tottenham captain Son told Sky: “It was very intense! When you have the ball and these amazing fans it’s joy. To get three points against a big opponent is special. I think there is still room to improve but we are looking forward. First half we were a little unsure, some mistakes early on. Second half we were unbelievable. Every manager is different, I will always respect them. If they give me any role I will do that.”
