Tottenham fullback Pedro Porro got the hosts back in the game when he hooked a shot past keeper David De Gea in the 56th minute after a Harry Kane effort was blocked.
The goal lifted Spurs and they created several more chances before Son Heung-min swept home a Kane cross in the 79th minute to rescue a point under interim head coach Ryan Mason.
On the other hand, Man United will be back in Premier League after the FA Cup break. They were held for a goalless draw and the match ended in a penalty shootout. Erik ten Hag moved towards another silverware of the season but this time, Man City will be there to give them a heartbreak.
