Manchester United extended their unbeaten record in the Premier League this season to 21 games and returned to the top of the table with an important draw at Tottenham.
David Beckham was at White Hart Lane to see the club he hopes to play for face the one he graced for so long - but for all the effort and quality on show the encounter descended into a scrappy affair.
United were forced to play the last 16 minutes without young Brazilian defender Rafael, who received a second yellow card for a foul on Benoit Assou-Ekotto, but they survived as Spurs were unable to muster the attacking threat that has made them such an impressive force at home and abroad this season.
Wayne Rooney remains out of sorts but also produced two of United's real moments of danger when he wasted an early chance and forced a fine save from Spurs keeper Heurelho Gomes early in the second half.
