Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has defended David de Gea after an astonishing blast from former teammate Roy Keane.

During last night's 1-1 draw with Tottenham, Keane tore into De Gea for failing to keep out Steven Bergwijn's 27th-minute opener. Bruno Fernandes equalised from the spot nine minutes from time.

Solskjaer said: “David did really well. Roy was a fantastic midfielder and he's a good friend of mine.

"But I'm not sure he'd have stopped it either. David was a bit disappointed but the ball was moving through the air. We reacted well."

The draw foiled Jose Mourinho's bid to take his side to within a point of fifth-placed United. Instead it continued the worst run of the Spurs boss's entire career with five defeats and two draws from the north Londoners' last seven.
