Sir Alex Ferguson’s side produced one of the greatest comebacks in Premier League history, turning round a three-goal deficit in the second-half with a five-goal salvo.
Dean Richards made a great start to life at Spurs with an early goal, before Les Ferdinand and Christian Ziege appeared to put the hosts out of sight.
However, Andy Cole, Laurent Blanc, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Juan Sebastian Veron and David Beckham turned things around in stunning fashion to leave White Hart Lane silent.
