Already in the 12th minute, Haaland could easily steer in 1–0 with his left foot. The goal was the 24-year-old's 20th Premier League goal for the season and he is second in the top scorer list.
Lucas Bergvall started for Tottenham while Dejan Kulusevski was substituted in in the 66th minute, but Haaland's goal was the only one in the match.
Dane Patrick Dorgu was about to become a real unlucky guy for his Manchester United. Already in the fourth minute, the 20-year-old gave away a goal to visiting Ipswich. A failed backpass to goalkeeper André Onana ended with Jaden Philogene getting an open goal instead.
Two minutes before halftime – after United had turned the game around to 2–1 – Dorgu was also sent off after a foul tackle with studs against Omari Hutchinson.
Now, however, it was a win for crisis-ridden Manchester United. Although Philogene could equalize with his second goal of the evening before halftime, just two minutes into the second half, central defender Harry Maguire headed in the decisive 3–2 goal.
The top match between second-placed Arsenal and Nottingham ended 0–0. Swede Anthony Elanga played 62 minutes for the home team Nottingham.
