Worst in 40 years! Man United script unwanted record after draw against 10-man Spurs

Manchester United suffered their worst start to a league season in nearly 40 years after drawing 1-1 with 10-man Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford on Saturday. The Red Devils have managed only six points from their first six Premier League matches, winning just once and failing to secure victory in their last four games. In contrast, Tottenham remain winless after six matches.

Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring for Manchester United, but Tottenham's Rodrigo Bentancur was sent off for head-butting Luke Shaw, leaving United with a man advantage. Dominic Solanke equalized for Spurs in the 92nd minute, silencing the home crowd.

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi expressed pride in his players' fighting spirit, particularly after coming back from a goal down with 10 men. He emphasized the importance of resilience and team play, stating that if they believe, improve and play as a team, they will score many goals and win many games.

United manager Michael Carrick was disappointed that his team failed to capitalize on Tottenham's red card and secure a win. He acknowledged that his side struggled to find their rhythm in the first half and lamented not being able to kill off the match. Carrick expressed his disappointment, stating it was a game they should have won.
