Manchester United 1-0 Totteham: 6 men who were brilliant for  Solskjaer

#2 Victor Lindelof

Lindelof was brilliant against Tottenham

One of the most developed players under Solskjaer, Lindelof had his biggest challenge on hand since the Norwegian took over - marking Harry Kane. The Englishman had scored 13 times already before the game and as such, Lindelof had to be at his very best to stop him. Yet, the Swede never looked uncomfortable and almost always had Kane under control.

Lindelof's speed, ball playing abilities and strength were all put to test against the English Striker and the Swedish International defender came out with flying colors on the night. Kane found a little joy whenever he was marked by Jones, but every time he came under Lindelof's radar, he was stifled for space. For a man who takes fun in harassing the opposition defenders, Kane was put in his place by Lindelof, who ensured that the Englishman drifted out wide to affect the game.

When Tottenham piled on the pressure in the second half, Lindelof stood tall, rising the highest and staying strong. He was bailed out by an outstanding De Gea behind him on a couple of occasions, but against Spurs, Lindelof was brilliant himself.
