Tottenham Hotspur are taking on Manchester United in the Premier League as both sides look to build on underwhelming an opening weekend with a statement win today. Spurs drew 2-2 at Brentford in their first match under new manager Ange Postecoglou and since the departure of talisman Harry Kane. Speaking ahead of his first home game, the Australian coach said he is determined to turn the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium into a fortress. “If you want to make it a place where we see it as an advantage, you have got to make sure the experience for opposition clubs is not a pleasant one,” Postecoglou said this week. United picked up all three points at home to Wolves but it was by no means a convincing performance and Erik ten Hag has called for much better against Tottenham, particularly from his midfield trio of Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes and summer signing Mason Mount. “It’s a new midfield and we have step up there,” he said. “We have to improve in possession. We were absolutely not good.” Follow the action from the Premier League match below.

A West Ham fan has gone viral after single-handedly defending a section of the club’s fans against violent rival hooligans. The unsavoury scenes unfolded at the AFAS stadium after the Premier League side beat Dutch team AZ Alkmaar in the Europa Conference League semi-final 1-0. In videos capturing the incident, the West Ham fan could be seen defending an area of the stand from a large group of AZ Alkmaar “ultras” who wore dark jackets with their hoods up. According to reports, the area of the stand they were trying to invade housed the family and friends of West Ham players and staff.

The fan, reportedly called 'Knollsy' was widely praised online for his actions and one person even called for him to receive a “lifelong season ticket”. One person joked: “No amount of stone island and balaclavas is a match for TK Max and 20 pints.” “What a guy,” another commented. Someone else said: “About 50 ultras getting held at bay by a steak bake inhaling cockney geeza, fairs.” Another said: “Give the blokes a lifelong season ticket!!!” Following the match, West Ham manager David Moyes said: “I can't explain what happened and why it happened. “Players were involved because it was the family section… that was probably the reason for the reaction. “I don't want that in any way to blight the night because the West Ham fans weren't looking for trouble. Hopefully, they'll look into it.” Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.

Gareth Southgate lauded Bukayo Saka after the England star scored a tremendous treble against North Macedonia and enjoyed one of the best nights of his life. Having followed up March’s wins against Italy and Ukraine by beating Malta 4-0 on Friday, the side put on a show on Monday as their Euro 2024 qualification cakewalk continued. Harry Kane’s brace was complemented by Marcus Rashford and Kalvin Phillips efforts at Old Trafford, where Saka was the star of the 7-0 annihilation of North Macedonia. A fierce strike from a tight angle was followed at the start of the second half by a stupendous second, before then quickly wrapping up the first hat-trick of his career. Saka was given a standing ovation after a sparkling performance made all the impressive by the fact Southgate revealed he has been dealing with an Achilles issue. “He’s had it for a few weeks and it’s an injury that just needs managing, but it would have been easy not to appear,” the England boss said. “I think when you then have probably one of the best nights of your life, it’s a reminder to everybody that it’s worth going through those things. “To see the joy on his face, he’s such a popular member of the team and so humble, works incredibly hard and, of course, talented. “He’s been finishing like that all week, so, yeah, it was outstanding performance.” Asked how close Saka is to being at an elite level, Southgate said: “Yeah, I think he’s there. “When he broke into the team at Arsenal, what struck us was that in a team that were having a difficult time he was performing at a really high level. “Then when the team were playing well he was still a key player and performing at a really high level. “So, that says a lot about his mentality, his ability to deal with pressure and that’s the environment that we’re in all the time. He’s exceptional to work with.” Saka’s goals in the final match of this unprecedented season mean it is a matter of when rather than if England wrap up qualification for next summer’s Euros. There were few signs of fatigue at a rocking Old Trafford, where Macedonia suffered their heaviest ever defeat. “The scoreline is outrageous, really,” Southgate said. “That wasn’t really how you were expecting the game to be because there’s no evidence that Macedonia would suffer like that. “There’s no evidence that the game in the end would be as straightforward as it was and certainly in the opening 20 minutes it didn’t look that way, so it’s huge credit to (the group). “I think our senior players have set a brilliant tone all week and Jordan Henderson on the pitch tonight. “He won’t get the headlines but the way he set the tone for winning the ball back and running forward and mixing the game up I think was really important.” I want to apologise to the whole of the Macedonian nation for our performance and what we did tonight Blagoja Milevski Macedonia were blown away at Old Trafford, where they were a far cry from the side that shocked Germany and Italy in recent years. Head coach Blagoja Milevski said: “Before we start the press conference, I want to apologise to the whole of the Macedonian nation for our performance and what we did tonight. “I make decisions for every player who plays and the responsibility is just mine so I have to apologise for the whole of the Macedonian nation. “It happens that these disastrous moments happen and we are all involved in it. I take all the responsibility for today’s game.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Stephen Kenny says ‘nothing is impossible’ ahead of France and Netherlands tests Rob Page insists Wales can still qualify despite Turkey defeat Michael O’Neill feels Northern Ireland did not deserve to lose to Kazakhstan
