Spurs managed to last beat Noah Vonleh Jersey the Red Devils in 1989 but they ended the run with goals from Belgian defender Jan Vertonghen, Gareth Bale and Clint Dempsey. This made it Uniteds second defeat of the season which left them four points behind league leaders Chelsea who beat Arsenal 2-1 at the Emirates Stadium.There were glimpses of the Southampton match Kris Dunn Jersey as Jan Vertonghen strolled through the Manchester United defence to net his first goal for the club in le s than two minutes. Thirty minutes later Gareth Bale dribbled from the left wing acro s the field to finish in the bottom right corner as Rio Ferdinands half-hearted challenge would have left Sir Alex Ferguson unimpre sed. The score was a shock 2-0 to Spurs at half time.A half time lashing from Sir Alex Ferguson lifted the fight in Uniteds attack. Wayne Rooney came on for Ryan Giggs in which he made an immediate impact as he slipped in a low cro s for Nani to slot past Brad Friedel which Tomas Satoransky Jersey made it 2-1. It only took 40 seconds after the goal for Spurs to Garrett Temple Jersey get their third as Clint Dempsey slotted home his first for the club from a Lindegaard parry and then Shinji Kagawa scored again one minute later which made the score 2-3 to Spurs. A crazy run of goals saw three goals in just 140 seconds. Manchester United were unlucky to equalise as they dominated second half po se sion but Spurs managed to hold on to the onslaught to secure a famous victory.United showed true fight in the second half as they resembled football taught by Sir Matt Busby. This was Wendell Carter Jersey the first time this season that Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney gelled well together which raises the question of why Rooney did not start the match. United need to improve defensively if they want a positive result against Newcastle United at St. James Park next weekend.
