Sir Alex Ferguson saluted his team's composure and killer instinct after United came from behind once again to beat Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.

Jermain Defoe's stunning goal for Spurs after just 50 seconds wasn't the only blow to the champions - later, the Reds lost the services of Paul Scholes when he was harshly shown a second yellow card. But despite playing for more than half an hour with ten men, United wrapped up the win when Wayne Rooney scored on the counter-attack to make it 3-1.

"Wayne's goal came at a great time, it killed the game for us," reflected Sir Alex.

"We were under the cosh with the ten men and had to defend really well. We had some good counter-attacking play and the third goal finished the game."

Entering the game with maximum points, Tottenham quickly set United a test by taking that lightning lead through Defoe.

"I think it was always going to be a hard game," said Sir Alex. "Spurs are in great form at the moment and they got off to a fantastic start by scoring in the first minute.

"It was a marvellous finish from Defoe but it was early in the game and there were still ninety minutes to play. We had to gather our game and show our composure and I thought our football was fantastic."

After Ryan Giggs equalised from a free-kick, United went 2-1 up through a rare source as Anderson scored his first competitive goal for the Reds in 78 appearances.

"I hope that drives him on to get more because he's capable of that," said the manager.

"He hasn't played a lot of games but he's part of a squad, we have so many midfield players and we have to rotate it at various times in the season and Anderson will play his part. He had a marvellous performance for us today."

The only blemish on a brilliant evening for United was the red card for Scholes.

"It was a terrible sending off," complained by Sir Alex.

"I think the referee (Andre Marriner) got it wrong. Scholes clearly lifted his leg above the player. I think the Tottenham player's done him, I think he (Tom Huddlestone) should have been punished.

"I've looked at it twice on the video and I can't see a sending-off in that. I think he was sent off because his name's Paul Scholes."

Having waited patiently in line behind Cristiano Ronaldo for much of the last six years, Ryan Giggs is more than happy to re-assume free kick duties.

The veteran star curled home a fine 25-yard effort at White Hart Lane, levelling matters after Jermain Defoe's early opener and laying the foundations for an impressive United victory, secured by further goals from Anderson and Wayne Rooney.

"I've been a bit rusty at free kicks," the 35-year-old told ESPN. "We've got plenty of players who can take them. "Nani's already scored one this season, Wayne and myself (can both take them). We've got plenty of options, but we didn't have a look-in for four or five years, obviously with Cristiano! I was just glad to see it go in."

Giggs' goal set the Reds up for an important win, but the points were only made safe by Rooney's fine late solo strike. With United a man light after the dismissal of Paul Scholes, Giggs was thankful that the firebrand forward was able to put the game to bed.

"With 10 men obviously it's always tough," he said. "They had a lot of the ball and we had to defend really well, they've got a lot of attacking options so we had to try to get men behind the ball and try to get a breakaway goal - and that's what we got.

"It was a great goal. When you're down to 10 men you're just hanging on really and hoping you get something, a bit of magic, and Wayne's produced that."

Having seen Anderson finally break his goalscoring duck after 78 competitive matches, the Brazilian's team-mates were naturally delighted for him.

The 21-year-old lashed home a fine goal at Tottenham to put the Reds on the verge of an impressive victory, and Rio Ferdinand claims the signs were there in recent weeks that Ando's drought was set to end.

"I think the lads have seen it coming," Rio told MUTV. "The international break gave him plenty of time to train and we've seen glimpses of what he can do. He scored a good goal for the Reserves and I think he's got the knack now of scoring.

"Hopefully he can go on a good run now and score more because if he does that he'll be a top-class player."

The Brazilian took plenty of ribbing from his colleagues during his drought, and it seems that ending it will not bring an end to the friendly banter.

"He's had a bit of stick about his celebration," added Ryan Giggs. "But we're all pleased. His performances have been really good since he's come to the club. He's a top player. He knows he needs to add goals to his game and hopefully he'll score a lot more."
