(Video) Cristiano Ronaldo gives Man Utd the lead with sumptuous volley vs. Tottenham

Manchester United are in action against Tottenham this afternoon as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have an opportunity to redeem themselves after last weekend’s embarrassing defeat to Liverpool.

Solskjaer named a similar starting eleven for the visit to Spurs but made two changes, with Edinson Cavani and Raphael Varane coming in for Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford.

The change provoked a system switch, with Solskjaer deciding against going with his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation. The Norwegian’s side started the game on the front foot and eventually made their dominance pay late in the first half.
