During the Premier League match on February 17, 2025, Tottenham Hotspur secured a 1-0 victory over Manchester United, thanks to a 13th-minute goal from James Maddison. This win lifted Tottenham to 12th position, while United dropped to 15th, with a comfortable 12-point cushion above the relegation zone. The result marked Tottenham's third win over United this season, providing a much-needed boost for manager Ange Postecoglou, whose team had struggled with poor league performances and domestic cup eliminations.

For Manchester United, manager Ruben Amorim continues to face pressure after managing only four wins in 14 league matches since his appointment in November. United also dealt with injury setbacks, with Amad Diallo and Lisandro Martinez absent, alongside Kobbie Mainoo sidelined for a month.

Tottenham’s goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, returning from injury, made key saves, while Maddison capitalized on an Andre Onana parry to score the match's only goal. Despite United's offensive struggles, highlighted by missed opportunities from Alejandro Garnacho and Joshua Zirkzee, Tottenham held firm defensively. The win provided a ray of optimism for Postecoglou's squad as they aim for improved results in the remainder of the season.
