Baardsen was in early action to stop Andy Cole from scoring, while the defence worked hard to deny United any chances.  Two minutes before the break, Giggs hit a shot past our Norwegian keeper two minutes before the interval, after our keeper spilled Beckham's cross and then headed a second in the 67th minute to seal the win.  

Baardsen did well to keep Sheringham's effort out and Spurs did not give up, with Klinsmann shooting just wide and debutant Nicola Berti hitting a shot just too high, but it was not enough to beat United.

Debutant Les Ferdinand forced Schmeichel into two saves, while Ramon Vega had two close attempts.  Spurs had a penalty shout denied, when Paul Scholes appeared to foul Vega in a match of few chances.  Walker stopped efforts from Sheringham and Cruyff, while Nielsen and Vega both missed the target at the other end.

Allan Nielsen's 81st minute tackle on Sheringham unfortunately took the ball straight into the path of Nicky Butt, who fired past Walker.  Tottenham's woe was compounded within 60 seconds, as Vega deflected David Beckham's cross into his own goal.

So, even though Spurs slipped to a 2-0 defeat, the Spurs crowd had something to celebrate - the fact that a penalty awarded to United for handball against Justin Edinburgh was taken by recent defectee Teddy Sheringham and he could only hit it against the post.

The two teams sat second (United) and third (Spurs) and absences had robbed both sides of regular starters.  An injury to Peter Schmeichel in the pre-match warm-up saw him struggle through the first half, but leave the action at the break and debutant William Prunier failed to adjust to the pace of the Premiership as Spurs tore into the Red Devils.

Spurs strikers Teddy Sheringham and Chris Armstrong had both been denied by the woodwork before the latter set up the former to fire home on 35 minutes.  United hit straight back though, with Phil Neville putting in a low ball for Andrew Cole to convert.  However, Tottenham went into the interval 2-1 up as Dean Austin's cross was powered home by Sol Campbell's head.

With substitute keeper Kevin Pilkington on between the sticks, Spurs continued to press forward and three minutes after the restart Chris Armstrong got Tottenham's third.  United strove to get back into the game, but Ian Walker denied them with some good stops and when he was beaten, Ronnie Rosenthal was on hand to clear off the goal-line.  It  was left to Armstrong to round off the scoring with a towering 66th minute header to complete United's misery.

Paul Stewart's second yellow card reduced Spurs to ten men, but Mabbutt flashed a header wide and Walker made a fine save from Giggs when clean through.  When Bryan Robson headed a late winner from a free-kick ten minutes from the end, it was a bitter pill to swallow when it had been such an even match.

The match attracted a smaller than expected attendance, leading to the home side claiming over £300,000 from the fund to compensate sides for people staying away to watch it at home.  They saw Arthur Graham give United a  12th minute lead, but this was canceled out in the 53rd minute by Alan Brazil's overhead kick.  However, a minute later, Kevin Moran slid in a well worked free-kick with Strachan being given the ball at the side of the wall and crossing low to the far post.  

Graham added a 74th minute header to put Man U further ahead, but Ardiles played in Falco to hit a rising shot straight after to get Spurs back in it.  However, Moran's second on 80 minutes wrapped up the victory for the home team.

As Paul Price went in for a Arthur Albiston cross, his challenge with Frank Stapleton was deemed to be worthy of a penalty by the ref and the spot-kick was converted by Steve Coppell.  It was Albiston who was the supplier once more, when Scott McGarvey headed in with three minutes remaining to seal the win.

Spurs played towards the Paxton Road end in the first half and a corner by Glenn Hoddle was headed on by Graham Roberts, but defender Mike Duxbury nodded the ball up into the air.  Roberts went up for the ball again and it dropped to Mike Hazard, whose shot was deflected on it's way past Paddy Roche in the United goal.

Another Hoddle corner this time found Roberts unmarked and his header went down past the keeper to make it 2-0, but before half time, Garry Birtles scored for United when a Ray Wilkins free kick was swung in and headed back across goal for the striker to hook a shot back across Clemence and into the net.

Spurs wrapped the game up in the second half when a poor pass by United was intercepted by Steve Archibald on the edge of the box and he buried the ball into the net with his left foot.

Spurs battled away and kept plugging away, bravely taking the tie into extra time, with Hoddle withstanding Jordan's aerial attentions.  It was then that the Argentinian pair of Ardiles and Villa linked up to produce a winner.  Ricky jinked into the penalty area, laid the ball back, almost psychically knowing Ardiles would be there to sweep it into the net to give Tottenham a highly unexpected 1-0 win.

The White Hart Lane crowd were treated to a stunning goal from Glenn Hoddle after he had been set up by Ossie Ardiles from a free kick.  Played up into the air outside of the penalty area on the right side, Hoddle cracked a waist-high volley past Gary Bailey at the Park Lane end with ferocious power.

Spurs applied most of the pressure in the first half, with Chris Jones having a goal disallowed for a foul on Gary Bailey when the United keeper dropped a high ball at his feet.  Don McAllister thundered a header against Bailey's bar and Glenn Hoddle fired a 20 yard shot straight at the keeper.  Spurs won a free-kick on the right side of centre about 30 yards out and Perryman curled it into the area, where Ossie Ardiles had ghosted in across a defender and headed into the net, with Bailey having come out to try to take the ball. 

Sammy McIlroy was booked for taking out Ardiles, as Spurs kept up their attacks, with Bailey scrambling to his left to save when Hoddle volleyed back a headed clearance by Gordon McQueen.  Just before the half-time interval Spurs had a good shout for a penalty when Martin Buchan slid in on Ardiles and did not appear to take the ball, but the referee was not interested in the claims.

The second half saw United move forward more and Steve Coppell had broken through the middle of the Spurs defence early on but when he got six yards out, he fluffed his shot under pressure from Terry Naylor.  Jimmy Greenhoff shot narrowly wide from the right before Mark Kendall reacted well to push Micky Thomas' header wide.  From the resulting corner, Thomas flicked the ball on at the near post and it dropped for him, off McQueen's backside, to force it in from close range for the equaliser.

United went looking for the winning goal and Andy Ritchie hit the top of the bar with a header from Greenhoff's cross.  Spurs had another claim for a penalty when Jones was bundled over by McQueen as he went for a header, but the refusal by the ref got the Spurs forward for his protests.

Chances still came at each end, with Pratt forcing Bailey to a low save with a 20 yard shot and Steve Perryman almost let United in with a back-pass that was intercepted by Coppell.  He went around Kendall, but his ball into the goalmouth was cleared by John Lacy at the near post.  Substitute Peter Taylor broke through on the right side of the box and hit a shot across goal, before Sammy McIlroy had the last chance, breaking away down the United right, cutting into the penalty area to turn inside Perryman and his shot across the six yard box was kicked away from in front of goal by Naylor to leave the two sides facing a replay in a few days time.

Winger Steve Coppell had put United in front after 16 minutes, with Stuart Pearson netting a second before half-time.  The second period was very different, as Spurs set about United in a determined fashion.  A goal from Ralph Coates, which swung straight in from a 56th minute corner put Tottenham back in it, while Ian Moores scored his first Spurs league goal after Naylor and Neighbour set up the opening for him.  With just ten minutes remaining on the clock, a left-footed drive from substitute John Pratt flew into the net for the winner to give Spurs all the points.

The nervousness affected United and Spurs played a freer game, with the goal coming early in the second half.  Martin Chivers' long throw deflected off a United defender and fell kindly to Ralph Coates around the penalty spot to rifle low past the keeper with his left foot.

Roger Morgan went close with a shot after racing onto a long ball into the left side of the box, while Ray Evans did well to get in a block to a George Best shot after the United winger pulled his left foot back just inside the box.

Tottenham had three good opportunities in the first half, with Morgan's corner finding Alan Gilzean's head, but it went wide, before England had a headed chance from a corner and Martin Chivers shot too high after Gilzean had provided the opening.

However, Spurs scored twice in two minutes in the middle of the second half to take both points. Steve Perryman emphatically hit the ball into the United net for the first goal (67 minutes and 28 seconds) and almost straight away, Martin Chivers fired home from a free-kick, giving Alex Stepney no chance (69 minutes and 09 seconds).

United pushed to get back in the game and put the Spurs goal under pressure towards the end, but there were few clear chances for the visitors. Bobby Charlton had a shot go wide, with Best twice testing Pat Jennings and other chances saw Willie Morgan go close with a shot and Charlton curl an effort just off target for United, who slipped to a 2-0 defeat.

Alan Gilzean and Neil Johnson gave Spurs a 2-0 half-time lead, with Jimmy Greaves (58 minutes), Eddie Clayton and Jimmy Robertson making it five before Bobby Charlton netted to get a consolation for United.

Greaves goal came at the end of a great move.  Eleven passes were made (involving Alan Mullery, Alan Gilzean, Maurice Norman, Dave Mackay and Eddie Clayton) before the ball came to Dave Mackay to hit a pass through to Greaves.  The striker spun away from the first tackle, sprinted clear of two defenders and as keeper Pat Dunne came out, he skipped around him and slid the ball into an empty net.

With Dave Mackay suffering a broken leg after just eight minutes, Spurs were reduced to ten men for the majority of the game, allowing United to go on to win and go through to the next round of the European Cup-Winners' Cup.

David Herd had scored for United a minute before Mackay left the action and the same player made it 2-0, but ten minutes after the interval, Jimmy Greaves scored to give Spurs the aggregate lead.

However, Charlton levelled the score in the tie in the 76th minute, then hit the winner against the ten men of Spurs with just four minutes remaining.

European Cup Winner's Cup - First Round First Leg

Postponed for a week because of fog on the night of the first game, a big crowd turned up for the match between two of England's glamour sides.  A cagey first half finished 0-0, but from Cliff Jones' back-heel, Mackay drilled home a shot to give Spurs the lead.

Bill Brown was on form in goal to deny Man U on a number of occasions, including turning a fierce drive from Denis Law over the bar, but the lead was doubled when Terry Dyson was alert to seize on a short Dunne back-pass, sticking the chance away for a valuable 2-0 lead just before the end of the match.

Bobby Smith's cross in the 32nd minute was looped over Gregg by the head of Cliff Jones from 18 yards out and the match was won in the 65th minute when Greaves and Jones exchanged passes to leave Frank Saul an opportunity to glide past the defence and slot home.  A late rally by United was to no avail as Bill Brown kept them out with a good display in goal.

Spurs got back into the game when Jimmy Greaves' curling free-kick was punched into his own net by United goalie Harry Gregg to make it 2-1, but Law went on to complete a hat-trick and leave Spurs with nothing to show for their trip to Old Trafford.

15 minutes in, Greaves pounced on Dave Mackay's half-saved shot to put Spurs one up, then a hooked shot by Medwin made it 2-0 after 28 minutes.  Blanchflower's free-kick was finished by Medwin five minutes prior to the break and five minutes the other side of half-time, Greaves slipped the ball past Gregg after latching onto Baker's pass.  Jimmy completed his hat-trick on 78 minutes and only two late goals from David Herd and Albert Quixall reduced the margin of victory.  Although Manchester United were more attack-minded in the second half, Cliff Jones' 72nd minute goal Medwin made the final score 6-2.

Our second defeat of the season arrived at Old Trafford in this First Division match.

The Reds were already in the FA Cup Final, but the closely fought affair was won by a Tommy Harmer penalty - the only goal of the game in the 43rd minute after a handball by Stan Crowther.

The wind had a major effect as it was blowing the length of the pitch, with Spurs having the first half advantage.  Cliff Jones, Jim Iley, Tommy Harmer and Bobby Smith all had efforts saved, while in the second period, Manchester United had chances through Bobby Charlton, Ernie Taylor and Colin Webster.

But the home side scored first, with Ted Ditchburn beaten by a 16th minute goal from David Pegg, who cut in from the left wing to rasp a drive past him.  The lead was short-lived, as four minutes later, Tottenham drew level with Bobby Smith beating Jackie Blanchflower in the air and taking the rebound on to score past Gaskell.  Smith was to prove too hot for the Manchester United defence and when he took John Ryden's 25th minute cross, he popped the ball over Roger Byrne's head and hit a right-footed shot pat the young Red Devils goalie.

As expected United came out for the second half pumped up and Pegg got a second goal with 60 minutes gone and then a 67th minute goal from Liam Whelan brought the score to 4-3 after he converted Eddie Colman's well-flighted free-kick.  The match ended with great excitement with Ditchburn keeping out two late Colin Webster efforts at the death to preserve the win.

Duncan Edwards cracked in both United goals at the Park Lane end.  His first was a left footed drive from the edge of the penalty area on two minutes, with the second following on 41 minutes as he fired a pile-driver past Ted Ditchburn from 30 yards.  United had to struggle on with injured players Denis Violett and Charlie Withers taking little part in the action, but Spurs could only manage a late consolation as Harry Clarke rose to head home George Robb's corner with two minutes to go, but it did prompt Ditchburn to take a throw-in to try and produce a late equaliser.

A cross eluded United keeper Reg Allen and fell to Sonny Walters, whose shot went through defender John Aston's legs and went in off the post.

Tottenham had the lead when Jimmy Armstrong beat keeper Lance Richardson after timing his run from the halfway line past the United defence to perfection, with Spurs going further ahead when Taffy O'Callaghan scored the second with a fierce shot before the half time whistle.

Tich Handley put in a cross after the break for Jimmy Dimmock to make it 3-0 with a shot off Richardson's legs, before Billy Chapman laid on an opportunity for Billy Johnson to pull a goal back for United.  However, Armstrong struck again with a 40 yard shot that rattled the underside of the bar as it swerved and dipped to deceive the keeper and hit the back of the net  to round off a 4-1 win for Tottenham.
