Sawt Falasteen - De Ligt rescues Man Utd in Spurs draw, Arsenal aim to extend lead

Bryan Mbeumo fired United ahead in the 32nd minute amid mounting discontent at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Booed off at half-time, Tottenham hit back and looked to have secured a dramatic victory after Mathys Tel equalised in the 84th minute and Richarlison deflected in a shot from Wilson Odobert in the 91st minute.

But United defender De Ligt powered in a 96th-minute header to extend his side's unbeaten run to five games.

Tottenham's failure to hold onto the lead was another blow to their dismal record in home league games in 2025, which includes only one win in six top-flight matches in north London this term.

Neither manager was satisfied with the outcome and United boss Ruben Amorim said: "During the game you feel that the three points were there.

"We have so much to grow as a team because today was our day to win. If we have a little bit more bravery, we can kill this game."

Tottenham manager Thomas Frank added: "A lot of things we could have done a bit better. The last goal is all about the urgency, maybe don't give the cross away and defend better."

Seventh-placed United have now failed to beat third-placed Tottenham in eight meetings, including a 1-0 defeat in the Europa League final in May.

- West Ham boost -

West Ham boosted their bid to avoid relegation with a 3-2 win against fellow strugglers Burnley at the London Stadium.

Burnley took the lead in the 35th minute when Lesley Ugochukwu's cross reached Zian Flemming and the Dutch forward headed home from close range.

Callum Wilson hauled West Ham level with a predatory finish from the rebound after Crysencio Summerville's shot was saved in the 44th minute.

Tomas Soucek netted for West Ham in the 77th minute, the Czech midfielder bundling in from close range after Lucas Paqueta's cross was parried into his path by Burnley keeper Martin Dubravka.

And, when Dubravka fumbled the ball towards Kyle Walker-Peters in the 87th minute, the defender's clinical finish put the result beyond doubt.

Josh Cullen's stoppage-time strike was no consolation for Burnley.

Third-bottom West Ham's second successive win moved them level on points with fourth-bottom Burnley.

Everton ended a three-game winless run with a 2-0 victory over Fulham at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

David Moyes' men went in front when Idrissa Gueye prodded home after James Tarkowski's header hit the bar in first-half stoppage time.

Everton defender Michael Keane wrapped up the points when he turned in Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's corner in the 81st minute.

Chasing a first English title since 2004, Arsenal can move nine points clear at the top if they win at the Stadium of Light.

Mikel Arteta's team have won their last 10 games in all competitions.

The Gunners have finished as Premier League runners-up for the last three seasons and haven't lifted a trophy since the 2020 FA Cup.

Chelsea host Wolves in the last game of Saturday's schedule.
