Who knew a Reds side could have so much win?

Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored for the second successive match as Manchester United returned to winning ways in the Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Tottenham at Old Trafford. The Armenian followed up his first Reds goal against Zorya Luhansk on Thursday by firing home a thunderous drive just before the half-hour mark after Ander Herrera’s pass cut open the Spurs defence. Paul Pogba was unfortunate not to add to the lead in the second half with a sensational free-kick from distance which struck the woodwork, but after three consecutive draws in the league, it was a welcome three points and a resilient display from Jose Mourinho’s men, who cut the gap behind Spurs in the table to three points with a repeat scoreline of last season’s corresponding fixture. Both sides had booked their place in the last 32 of the Europa League during the week but crucial league points were on the agenda as they sought to maintain the pressure on the teams above them, which the Reds don't seem to have been doing as of late. Just to clarify, the silverware is on offer for consistency over a total of 38 games - one home game and one away against each of the other 19 sides. But the Red Devils can still make it to the top again.
