Manchester United have given Tottenham Hotspur a big boost in their hunt for the English Premier League title after a dominant 2-0 win over Chelsea at Old Trafford.
A big win for Mauricio Pochettino’s men against Bournemouth on Saturday meant they had cut the gap to the Blues to just 4 points ahead of kick-off in Manchester and Antonio Conte’s side couldn’t find the performance required to restore that to 7 points.
Goals from Marcus Rashford and Ander Herrera early in each half gave Jose Mourinho a huge win against his former club, a win that means they are still within touching distance of a top four finish.
The pressure is now on Chelsea in a big way and they meet Spurs next week, although it’s not points up for grabs but a place in the FA Cup final. If Spurs win that then the Stamford Bridge side will have to dig deep to find the form required to get over the line as champions.
Is it turning into a season of dreams for Tottenham Hotspur?
