Mon Sep 30 00:12:13 UTC 2024: ## Tottenham Humiliate Manchester United, Ten Hag Under Fire After 3-0 Defeat
**Manchester, England** – Tottenham Hotspur piled the pressure on Erik ten Hag’s position as Manchester United manager with a resounding 3-0 victory at Old Trafford on Sunday, leaving the Red Devils languishing in 12th place.
The visitors raced into a three-minute lead when Brennan Johnson capitalized on Micky Van de Ven’s surging run to tap in the opener. Tottenham dominated the first half, creating numerous chances and even missing a penalty before Bruno Fernandes received a straight red card for a reckless challenge on James Maddison.
Dejan Kulusevski doubled the advantage early in the second half, before Dominic Solanke rounded off the scoring with a deflected effort.
Ten Hag, who extended his contract just three months ago, faces mounting pressure after his side’s third defeat in six league games. The Dutchman acknowledged his team’s poor performance, stating “What I saw in the first 30 minutes is below the level we can expect from a Manchester United team.”
Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou hailed his side’s “outstanding” performance, highlighting their “aggressive” and “convinced” approach.
The Red Devils now face a crucial week, with trips to Porto in the Europa League and Aston Villa in the Premier League looming before a two-week international break.
Despite Ten Hag’s attempts to maintain a united front, chants of “You’re getting sacked in the morning” echoed from the travelling Tottenham supporters.
With a daunting schedule and growing discontent, Ten Hag’s future at Old Trafford appears increasingly precarious.
