"Having been booed by his own supporters for replacing Xavi Simons with Mathys Tel on 79 minutes, Spurs head coach Thomas Frank was vindicated when Tel cancelled out Bryan Mbeumo's first-half opener with an 84th-minute equalizer. And when Richarlison headed Spurs into the lead one minute into the six minutes of stoppage time, the home side appeared to have pulled off an incredible fightback to beat United for a fifth successive game."
"But Spurs saw three points snatched out their hands when De Ligt headed home from a corner in the 96th minute to claim a deserved point for United. Despite the dropped points and restless home crowd, Spurs moved up to third place in the Premier League, while United maintain their push for a Champions League spot in seventh. -- Ogden"
"Spurs were booed off at half-time for the second weekend in a row. The full-time whistle was greeted with disbelief; the product of three late goals creating the ultimate roller coaster of emotions for all concerned. When the dust settles, a draw in one sense may feel satisfactory. But on the other hand, conceding a 96th-minute equalizer from a set-piece to a team with 10 men will feel bitterly disappointing."
Matthijs de Ligt scored a 96th-minute header to equalize for Manchester United and extend United's unbeaten run to five matches. Tottenham opened through Bryan Mbeumo, Mathys Tel equalized in the 84th minute, and Richarlison put Spurs ahead early in stoppage time. Thomas Frank faced boos after substituting Xavi Simons with Mathys Tel, and Spurs were booed off at half-time. Spurs rose to third in the Premier League while Manchester United remained seventh and kept pushing for a Champions League spot. Conceding a late set-piece equalizer left Spurs frustrated despite gaining a point.
