Manchester United Beat Tottenham to Boost Top-Four Push

Manchester United strengthened their Premier League top-four hopes after a strong 2–0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils produced a confident display, extending their winning streak and maintaining their impressive run under interim manager Michael Carrick.

United took control after Tottenham captain Cristian Romero was sent off in the first half for a reckless tackle on Casemiro. Playing with a numerical advantage, the hosts dominated possession and chances.

Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring before captain Bruno Fernandes sealed the win late in the match, marking a major milestone with his 200th goal involvement for the club.

The victory moved Manchester United to 44 points from 25 matches, giving them a four-point cushion over fifth-placed Chelsea in the race for Champions League qualification.

Carrick’s Revival Continues

Since stepping in as interim manager, Michael Carrick has transformed United’s form. The team remains unbeaten in seven league matches and has now won four consecutive Premier League games.

Carrick has urged the club not to rush into appointing a permanent manager, insisting long-term decisions should not be based only on short-term success.

This impressive run has revived belief among fans that United can secure Champions League football next season.

Pressure Mounts on Tottenham

For Tottenham, the defeat deepens a difficult season. The club sits in 14th place and remains winless in their last seven league matches, with pressure increasing on manager Thomas Frank.

Romero’s red card also means the defender will face a four-match suspension, adding to Spurs’ ongoing squad challenges.

Positive News for Manchester United Women

It was also a successful period for Manchester United Women, who secured a 2–0 victory over Leicester City in the Women’s Super League. The win keeps them in the top three and in the race for the title.

What This Means for the Season

Manchester United’s resurgence has reignited hopes of a strong finish to the campaign. With momentum on their side and key players delivering, the Red Devils are firmly back in the race for a Champions League spot.
