United battled Ange Postecoglou‘s side to end in a 2-2 draw at Old Trafford.

Martinez, 25, came on just after an hour into the game to replace Jonny Evans and did not waste time to return to his old form.

The defender stopped Richarlison from reaching an out-swinging cross that was heading towards Alejandro Garnacho near the box, by shoving the Brazilian down to the ground.

And United fans were over the moon to have Martinez’s assistance as they took to social media to sing his praise.

One supporter said: ” Martinez leaving one on Richarlison. It’s so good to have him back.”

While another added: “We’ve missed Martinez so much.”

A third then put: “Hence they call #licha the butcher.”

Ten Hag’s side took the lead against Tottenham after just three minutes with Rasmus Hojlund‘s strike before Richarlison levelled the scoreline 16 minutes later.

Marcus Rashford restored United’s lead just before the break but Rodrigo Bentancur’s goal early into the second half left both sides with one point.

Martinez over the last 12 months has suffered with two foot injuries.

In April last year he went down in the Europa League quarter final against Sevilla and had to have surgery on a broken metatarsal.

He then required a second operation on his foot in October last year from another injury setback after United 3-1 defeat to Arsenal.

Martinez will now hope to restore the Red Devils as they fight their way up the table for a spot in Europe next term.
