After a calamitous start, Jones' night went from bad to worse as his badly timed attempt at clearing Kieran Trippier's cross flew straight past David De Gea and doubled Spurs' lead.

Jose Mourinho, evidently livid, took Paul Pogba off for Marouane Fellaini, who then came off ten minutes later due to an injury. The substitution summed up United's night; even when they tried to change it up and be more direct, nothing was coming off. It is thought Fellaini was taken off after just 10 minutes on the pitch due to injury, but it wouldn't have been a surprise if it was a tactical decision after Mourinho changed his mind.
