Manchester United took the lead in the 32nd minute with Ebuemo who headed in without even getting off the ground to make it 1-0 from Diallo's cross. The scorer of the first goal was also named the Premier League's top player for the month of October, transforming the superiority and the very positive image of Amorim's team into a lead until the break.
A win would have sent the Manchester club into 2nd place in the table, but in the end this was not to be, with the club remaining in 7th place. Tottenham turned the tables on themselves to be rewarded for their much more consistent effort in the second half. By playing with De Licht's back and scoring with a deflected shot in the 84th minute, Tel made it 1-1, while Richarlison, with a smart header on Oduber's shot and with Lisandro covering him, made it 2-1 and the come-back for the "spurs".
Even so, the Brazilian forward of the Londoners was left on the grass in the final to play with his luck again, after De Ligt in the 96th minute with a header from the second post tied the final 2-2.
