Manchester United were held to a score draw against Tott on Friday night Premier League game.
Both sides shares the points at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, without fans.
Red Devils fell behind with Jose Mourinho side first shot on target, it was a solo run from Steven Bergwijn who raced pass United defense to shoot the ball pass De Gea.
Meanwhile, Man United experienced goalkeeper, David De Gea has been criticized for the goal by former club's legend, Roy Keane.
Speaking during half time, Keane said he would have been “swinging punches” at the Spanish goalie in the Man Utd dressing room at half-time for his error.
But the manager of the Old Trafford outfit, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has come to his number defense.
“Well I’m disappointed to [see them] score the first time they have a chance and the boy hit it really well,” Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said after the game. “Roy was a fantastic midfielder, a good friend of mine, I'm not sure he would have stopped it either.
“David is disappointed with it but the ball is moving through the air, we reacted well after that one and he had a good save five minutes after, we had a bad spell for 10 minutes and they looked like they could get a second.”
Meanwhile, Manchester United grabbed their equaliser from the penalty spot. Paul Pogba came off the bench and wiggled his way pass Eric Dier who tackled him and Jon Moss pointed to the center of the box.
Bruno Fernandes stepped up and sent Hugo Lloris the wrong way.
"Good performance, disappointed with the one point. I think we deserved more. I think the performance deserved three points,” added Solskjaer.
"We started off slow, dominated possession yes but too slow then we conceded a sloppy goal - disappointed with that one. We had a bad five minutes after that one but after that I think it was only a matter of time before we got the goal."
Following the 1-1 result, Manchester United are now two points behind fourth-placed Chelsea who will face Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon.
Solskjaer concluded: "Hugo Lloris made a fantastic save and we should have had more goals.
