Premier League: Lucas Moura, Harry Kane lead scoresheets as Tottenham trounce Man Utd

Manchester: In four previous Premier League visits to Old Trafford, Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino had never seen his team score.

He has now - three times.

Tottenham humiliated Manchester United 3-0 on Monday to stay perfect after three rounds and increase the pressure on Pochettino's beleaguered counterpart, Jose Mourinho.

Harry Kane and Lucas Moura struck twice in a three-minute span early in the second half. Moura grabbed a second with six minutes left.

Mourinho cut a lonely figure as he took to the field at the end to shake hands with his players and then went out of his way to applaud the home fans who had remained inside Old Trafford.

United had beaten Spurs 1-0, 1-0, 1-0 and 3-0 in their last four league meetings at Old Trafford.

After beating Leicester in its opener, United lost to Brighton 3-2 and now has three points after three rounds.

As well as Mourinho, the spotlight was on goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, who captained Tottenham days after being charged with drunken driving.

The France captain apologized "wholeheartedly" for his actions on Friday and started at Old Trafford, where Mousa Dembele and Danny Rose came into the side.

Nemanja Matic was one of six United alterations on Monday, with MUTV confirming the defensive midfielder would form part of a back three.

Minutes before kickoff Tottenham announced substitute Erik Lamela had been injured in the warmup and would be replaced by 21-year-old midfielder Luke Amos on the bench.

When the game got underway, the teams fought out an entertaining but goalless first half.

Romelu Lukaku had numerous chances to give United what would have been a deserved lead, including dragging across the face of an open goal after rounding Lloris.

Shortly after halftime, Spurs punished some feeble defending.

Kane all too easily got free at a corner and directed a super header into the top right-hand corner.

The 50th-minute opener was soon added to as Christian Eriksen ghosted behind to send in a cross directed home by Moura.

Moura added his second of the evening in the 84th, superbly beating Chris Smalling and firing into the bottom corner after a swift break to seal a 3-0 win.
