Thursday night's Carabao Cup action was a thriller for the neutral with seven goals flying in at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

But supporters of both clubs will have been tearing their hair out during the game as questionable defending and goalkeeping the major factor behind the goal count.

Spurs went 1-0 up at half time through Dominic Solanke's poacher's goal after Red Devils goalkeeper Altay Bayindir parried Pedro Porro's long-range effort into the forward's path.

A poor clearance by Lisandro Martinez allowed Dejan Kulusevski to smash in Spurs' second before Solanke put them 3-0 up.

But it was the home side's turn to shoot themselves in the foot defensively as two woeful errors by Fraser Forster saw Joshua Zirkzee and Amad Diallo breathe new life into the contest.

Heung-min Son then restored Spurs' two-goal advantage with a goal directly from a corner with Bayindir once again found wanting.

Jonny Evans' stoppage-time header made it a nervous finish but Spurs held out to keep their hopes of a first trophy since 2008 alive.
