| The Red Devils bounced back from their mauling by Liverpool to win at Spurs |
Manchester United thrashed Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 with goals from Cristiano Ronaldo, Edinson Cavani and Marcus Rashford in the Premier League on Saturday to ease the pressure on under-fire manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Ronaldo struck in the 39th minute with a perfect right-foot volley into the far corner of Hugo Lloris’s net from a glorious pass by Portuguese compatriot Bruno Fernandes.
Cavani added the second in the 64th and substitute Rashford wrapped up a comfortable win four minutes from time as United put last weekend’s 5-0 home drubbing by Liverpool behind them.
United climbed to fifth on 17 points from 10 games, while Nuno Espirito Santo’s shot-shy Spurs side, who failed to trouble United goalkeeper David De Gea, are eighth on 15.
