Three goals, and all three points from Jose Mourinho’s men who return to top-four after the convincing victory at Bramall Lane.
Tottenham entered the match looking for their first victory in six games, and a match against the rock-bottom-placed Premier League side couldn’t have come at a better time.
Goals from Serge Aurier, Harry Kane, and Tanguy Ndombele saw Spurs get back to winning ways and climb back into the top-four.
It took only five minutes for the away side to get on the scoresheet with Aurier, after barely having to jump, nodding in at the front post from a Son Heung-min delivery from the corner.
With a fine low drive into the bottom corner from 20 yards, Kane then doubled his side’s lead after Sheffield United were dispossessed during an attempt to play out from the back.
Two minutes after the hour-mark, Ndombele killed the game with a peach of a finish. The Frenchman, after receiving the pass from Steven Bergwijn, lifted the ball over the goalkeeper with the outside of his boot from a tight angle.
