90+3 mins: Lucas comes so close to the equalizer! Cross from White finds Lucas on the spot but his header just drifts wide. Hands on head. That'll be the last chance of the game.

FULL TIME.

And it is indeed over as Manchester United beat Tottenham Hotspur 2 - 1. Goals from Martial and Gomes either side of Lucas's deflected strike gives United their fourth straight win of pre-season. United deserved the result based on their performance over the game but Spurs were much improved in the second half with Son coming close a couple of times. Great performances from United's young stars as James, Greenwood, Rashford and, of course, Gomes all impressed.
