Manchester United went top of the Premier League as they beat Sunderland3-0, while Manchester City were hammered 4-1 by Tottenham in the day's early game. United struggled to break down Sunderland early on as in-form Anthony Martial started up front. Memphis Depay had a shot, but could not break through as Dick Advocaat's men held firm. However, just before the break, Daley Blind played the ball over the top, Juan Mata took it first time and played it across the box for Depay to finish into an empty net.
And minutes after half-time United were 2-0 up. Martial drove at the defence, crossed and Wayne Rooney deflected the ball in. David De Gea made a stunning save to keep the lead intact and Mata scored another to seal their place at the top of the table by one point.
