Following the 2-2 draw between Tottenham and Manchester United at Old Trafford, Micky van de Ven took to Instagram to praise Spurs for their impressive performance away from home. Despite facing setbacks, including injuries and absences, Tottenham showed incredible resilience.
Van de Ven, along with Cristian Romero, who recently returned to action, was a standout in the starting lineup, putting on a stellar defensive display to thwart United’s attacks. The match saw United take the lead early on, but Spurs fought back twice to equalize, displaying their determination and grit.
Van de Ven’s speed and defensive prowess were on full display as he frustrated United’s attempts to take advantage of Spurs’ high defensive line. However, he was forced to leave the game due to an injury in the dying minutes, prompting a quick substitution by manager Ange Postecoglou.
Despite the disappointment of not securing a win, Tottenham’s performance and ability to maintain possession at around 60% were notable. The team’s ability to skillfully pressure United into making mistakes showcased their strength and determination.
Looking to the future, it is clear that focusing on winning upcoming games will be crucial for Spurs to remain competitive in the title race, especially with key players sidelined.
