Manchester United made it two Premier League wins from two with a clincial win over Tottenham at Old Trafford.

A goalless first half saw both keepers make stops, Spurs' Brad Friedel saving the best effort from Tom Cleverley.

United striker Danny Welbeck broke the deadlock on the hour, heading in Cleverley's cross, before Anderson finished off a superb counter-attack.

Jermain Defoe hit a post with a volley as Spurs tried to hit back, but Wayne Rooney's header sealed a fine victory.
