Serge Aurier – 4. As guilty as Dier for slack marking on Cavani for the Uruguayan’s header in another suspect defensive display. His needless late challenge on Shaw in injury time summed up an absent-minded performance. PA

Eric Dier – 4. For the first half hour or so, Dier looked to be settling into the match but he got progressively worse as he struggled to deal with Cavani’s movement. Lost Cavani for United’s second and showed a feeble attempt to halt Pogba in the build-up to the third. AFP

Joe Rodon – 7. Comfortably the pick of Tottenham’s defenders. The Welsh centre-back was alert to danger and strong in the tackle to repel United’s attacks. Couldn’t be blamed for any of the three conceded goals. PA

Lucas Moura – 7. Looked lively when he attempted to spring forward on the counter-attack, but too often picked the wrong pass or was dispossessed too easily.

Scott McTominay 7. Important job alongside Fred dealing with Kane and Son. Booked after a 17th minute foul on fleet-heeled Ndombele and then a United goal was ruled out by VAR because he was accused of fouling Son. It was an awful decision: McTominay was in possession and Son grabbed at his shirt, for which he batted him away like any player would do. Son went down heavily, which was a surprise. PA

Fred 8. The Brazilian scored! It’ll need to be ratified by the United Nations as it’s a world first, but his undiluted joy was shared by his teammates. Fernandes was so impressed he pushed him over. Tireless in the second half as United dominated midfield. He had more touches than any other player on the pitch - and he also started the move which led to his goal.

Paul Pogba 8. Won a difficult header in United’s first proper attack. Exceptionally timed pass to Cavani to set up what he thought was the first goal. As influential in the second half as he was in the equivalent fixture last season and had a chance to put his team ahead but his backheel was blocked. Best player on the field. Also hit the post – his own post – with an 83rd minute header. Set up the third, too. Fortunate not to be booked for a foul on Aurier. EPA

Edinson Cavani 9. Clever early touch set up Rashford in United’s first attack and then a sublime finish after combining with Pogba to think he’d put United ahead. He hadn’t. You couldn’t blame him for wanting to go back to South America: he’s had absolutely no luck since he moved to Manchester in September. And yet…he was superb in the second half, shot before Fred’s goal and got the winner. He also stopped a certain Spurs equaliser at the other end. Justice. Reuters

Late goals by Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood sealed Manchester United a 3-1 comeback win against Tottenham Hotspur, cementing their place in the Premier League top-four while the London club's hopes of joining them looked slim on Sunday.

Cavani had a goal controversially ruled out in a an otherwise dull first half shortly before Son Heung-min gave Tottenham a 40th-minute lead with their first shot on target.

Edinson Cavani and Manchester United crank up pressure on Spurs manager Jose Mourinho

The second half was far more lively with United dominant.

Fred equalised from close range just before the hour-mark and Cavani then made up for his first-half frustration by diving to head home in the 79th minute.

The closest Tottenham came to an equaliser was when Cavani headed an attempted clearance against his own crossbar.

But substitute Greenwood made sure of the win when he fired past Hugo Lloris with almost the final kick.

Second-placed United's win allowed them to cut runaway leaders Manchester City's lead to 11 points having played one game fewer, although perhaps more importantly they are nine points above fifth-placed Chelsea.

Tottenham stay in seventh spot, six points behind fourth-placed West Ham United.

Harel Libi & Libi Construction and Infrastructure
Libi has been involved in threatening and perpetuating acts of aggression and violence against Palestinians. His firm has provided logistical and financial support for the establishment of illegal outposts.

Ziina users can donate to relief efforts in Beirut

Ziina users will be able to use the app to help relief efforts in Beirut, which has been left reeling after an August blast caused an estimated $15 billion in damage and left thousands homeless. Ziina has partnered with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees to raise money for the Lebanese capital, co-founder Faisal Toukan says. “As of October 1, the UNHCR has the first certified badge on Ziina and is automatically part of user's top friends' list during this campaign. Users can now donate any amount to the Beirut relief with two clicks. The money raised will go towards rebuilding houses for the families that were impacted by the explosion.”
