Ryan Mason earned a draw for Tottenham Hotspur against Manchester United on his first day in the interim coaching role by combining the goals of Harry Kane and Son Heung-Min.

Sunday’s 6-1 thrashing of Spurs by Newcastle ended Cristian Stellini’s four-game stint as temporary manager.

As United stormed into a 2-0 lead by halftime in caretaker Ryan Mason’s first game in charge, things threatened to get even worse.

Jadon Sancho smashed home the opener after just seven minutes before Marcus Rashord turned on the afterburners to race past Eric Dier and fire in his 29th goal of the season.

United fans taunted the home support with chants of “Harry Kane, we’ll see you in June” amid interest from the Red Devils in Spurs’ all-time top goalscorer.

But Tottenham finally showed some fight to boost their chances of qualifying for Europe next season.

Pedro Porro reduced the arrears with a stunning strike before Kane crossed for Son Heung-min to level 11 minutes from time.

Spurs gain a point to move back up to fifth position, but they are still six points behind United, who are in fourth place and have two games remaining.
