Manchester United continued their revival under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as they beat Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 in their Premier League fixture at the Wembley stadium.

Both teams started the game in a positive fashion and tried hard to get in front during the early stages. However, it was United who took the lead through Marcus Rashford just minutes before the half time whistle.

Tottenham tried their best to cut the deficit after the half-time and created a number of good chances to level the scoreline. United's defence stood strong though, and didn't let the Spurs take anything away from the game.

The Red Devils enjoyed just 38 percent of possession during the game and had fewer shots (13) on goal than their opponents (21). But that didn't stop them from taking all three points.

Manchester United started the 2018-2019 season poorly, which subsequently led to the sacking of the former manager Jose Mourinho. The Red Devils appointed the former player Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as the caretaker manager for the rest of the season, and they are yet to lose a game under the Norwegian.

The Manchester-based club are currently sixth on the Premier League table, 16 points behind the leaders Liverpool. They will host Brighton for their Premier League fixture next weekend before making a trip to London to play Arsenal for the fourth-round match of the FA Cup.

On the other hand, Tottenham are currently third in the Premier League, as many as nine points behind the leaders Liverpool after this defeat. They will play Fulham next week before playing Chelsea at the Stamford Bridge for the second leg of the EFL Cup semi-final.

Football fans on Twitter reacted with plenty of humor and wit to Manchester United's victory, and here are some of the best tweets.
