Rodrigo Bentancur was sent off following a clash with Luke Shaw as Tottenham Hotspur battled back to secure a 1-1 draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Bentancur confronted Shaw after being pushed to the ground, leading to a red card for violent conduct after a VAR review confirmed he moved his head toward the United defender. Shaw and Jan Paul van Hecke both received yellow cards during the resulting melee between the two squads.
