Tottenham Hotspur lost a player in the 78th minute of their match against Manchester United and finished the match with ten men, but managed to equalize in the final minutes. The expulsion occurred when the Uruguayan midfielder RodrigoBentancur, of the Spurs, headbutted the English full-back LukeShaw, causing a tangency that culminated in the Uruguayan's direct red card.
The match, which was played in the Premier League, ended 1‑1. The Spurs' goal came first, when BryanMbeumo put Michael Carrick's team ahead in the 73rd minute. Five minutes later, in a contact play between both players, Bentancur reacted with a header that hit Shaw. The Uruguayan's tackle, who pushed Shaw, generated a hand dispute that led the referee to send off Bentancur and give Shaw a yellow card. From that moment on, Tottenham were forced to play with ten players for the rest of the match.
Despite the numerical inferiority, Tottenham managed to equalize the score in the 92nd minute. DominicSolanke, with a header, slightly deflected a ball sent by SandroTonali, thus avoiding a defeat for Spurs. The goal came as the Premier League resumed, after the national team break, and sealed the tie.

Bentancur's sending off left Tottenham in a vulnerable position, but the team's defensive performance and Solanke's intervention allowed the final result to be a draw. With this partial victory, Tottenham maintains its position in the table, while Manchester United continues to seek to improve its position in the league.
