United got off to a flying start, employing that high press and netting an early goal courtesy of Elisabeth Terland.
Marc Skinner's side dominated possession in the first half but couldn't add to our tally.
Spurs were much improved in the second 45 but we showed why we have the best defensive record in the league this season to grind out the three points.
FIRST HALF - TERLAND GIVES US THE LEAD
Head coach Skinner named an unchanged starting XI from the side that beat Brighton 3-0 last weekend. We executed the high press which had worked so well for us in our previous two WSL games and put the home side under early pressure.
