The story in brief

33-second read

Alex Livesey/Getty Images Tottenham Hotspur are now starting to boss games for longer and longer periods during matches, former England goalkeeper Rob Green feels. At the weekend, Spurs played out a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford against Manchester United in the Premier League.

Tottenham finished with a better xG and had more touches inside the Manchester United penalty box than the Red Devils’ did in theirs, despite being forced to play the last 12 minutes with ten men after Rodrigo Bentancur’s headbutt saw him sent off.

Even Tottenham’s goal, which came in the 92nd minute, was scored while having fewer men on the pitch than the home team. @media only screen and (max-width:42em){#videoAd{min-height:382px!important}#snack_dex7,#snack_mex7{max-height:50px!important;max-width:320px!important}}@media only screen and (min-width:42em){#videoAd{min-height:480px!important}#belowVideoAd{min-height:120px!important}}#videoAd{background:#f9f9f9}#belowVideoAd{background:#f9f9f9;width:100%} Enjoying this story?
