Even then Toby Alderweireld might have blocked the coming cross but Young had time and space to find Wayne Rooney. As the England centre forward sized up her first goal of the season, Kyle Walker intervened with a decisive challenge; decisive in that he took the ball off the foot of Rooney and directed it into the bottom corner.

It was enough for Tottenham to lose all their momentum. They suddenly looked nervous at the back, lost their intensity in midfield and stopped creating chances up front. Another loose pass allowed Rooney to set up Juan Mata on 35 minutes who eventually shot just wide. That said, it wasn’t that United looked particularly impressive in that opening 45 minutes, simply that they took advantage of the opportunity which had been presented to them.

United improved noticeably for the second half but not so much that you ever felt they would oput he game beyond doubt. Depay had a striker just over on 49 minutes and Young, who continued last season’s good run, dodged away from Bentaleb on 64 minutes to force a save from Michel Vorm. Darmian’s best moment came on 73 minutes when his superb run down the right resulted in wayward scissor kick from Rooney.

Only in the final ten minutes did Tottenham seem to contest the game again. Primarily it was Eriksen who was the danger, with two striker both of which Romero saved. But all around him, the likes of Kane and Chadli suddenly came to life in possession of the ball. It wasn’t enough to earn them a point; it might have been enough to elevate Romero to the status of cult hero.
