Bruno Guimarães completed the comeback in the 70th minute, after running onto a superb backheel from Declan Rice on the edge of the box, before powering a low drive into the bottom corner.

Elsewhere, Dominic Solanke scored in stoppage time to salvage a point for 10-man Tottenham as they snatched a draw against Manchester United in a feisty encounter at Old Trafford.

It looked as if United were about to pile more misery on the visitors following their pitiful start to the Premier League season when Bryan Mbeumo broke the deadlock in the 73rd minute.

Things went from bad to worse for Spurs when Rodrigo Bentancur was sent off five minutes later for headbutting Luke Shaw, who had shoved him over after a reckless challenge from the Uruguay midfielder.

But Solanke, who was captaining Tottenham for the first time, nodded Sandro Tonali’s cross into the back of the net in the second minute of added time to lift Spurs off the bottom of the table.
