Pochettino apologises to Manchester United for tough tackling by his players

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino apologised to Manchester United for tough tackling by his players during their 2‑1 pre‑season defeat in Shanghai.

Moussa Sissoko could have been sent off for a challenge on Daniel James, which drew an angry response from United midfielder Scott McTominay and left the former Swansea winger in a heap while players argued among themselves in a heated tussle.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer played down any suggestion he might be unhappy with the treatment his players received in what was supposed to be a "friendly" match, which formed part of the International Champions Cup.
