Tottenham rescued an unlikely point at Manchester United after fighting back to draw 1-1 with 10 men - but their search for a Premier League win extends into another week. The point at least lifts Spurs off the foot of the table but Roberto De Zerbi's side remain marooned in the relegation zone, without a league victory since May.

De Zerbi's mission looked hopeless.
But Spurs did not give up, and were rewarded with a leveller in stoppage time when Solanke glanced a header past a static Senne Lammens. Neither manager will be happy with the outcome. Man Utd are stuck in the midst of their worst start to a season for 40 years, while Spurs' plight is more damning still.
