Tottenham showed there is life after Harry Kane with a 2-0 win over Manchester United on Saturday. Spurs were playing for the first time at home since record goalscorer Kane departed for Bayern Munich.

Sarr strikes

But in Ange Postecoglou's first match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the home side showed promising signs of a new era as Pape Sarr's strike and Lisandro Martinez's own goal continued United's sluggish start to the season. "I keep saying we're still a long way to go but I really liked the belief and resilience the guys have and the bravery they have to continue playing that way," said Postecoglou.

Fernandes demands apology

Meanwhile, Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes said his side deserve an apology after not being awarded a penalty early on in 2-0 defeat at Tottenham. The score was level at 0-0 when no action was taken for a handball by Cristian Romero that turned Alejandro Garnacho's shot behind for a corner.
