Tottenham Hotspur hosted Manchester City at their home stadium and it was a tough and interesting 90 minutes of action for both. A defensive blunder by a Tottenham Hotspur defender led to an own goal and this was enough to inspire Man City to a 1-0 win in the first 45 minutes of the game.

Man City and Pep Guardiola finally ended their Tottenham hoodo after Nathan Ake netted their first ever goal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
City had never scored at Spurs’ new ground, losing all five games dating back to 2018, with several misses and much drama attached to their drought, which have included more than 100 shots.
They had failed to break the deadlock in their FA Cup fourth round clash on Friday evening after having 17 shots and it looked set to be a familiar story.
However, in the 88th minute a Kevin de Bruyne corner caused chaos.
And when, Guglielmo Vicario failed to deal with the Belgian’s inswinging delivery, the ball bounced off Micky Van de Ven and Nathan Ake was there to prod home, sparking jubilant scenes in the away end.

City had played for more than nine hours at Spurs’s stadium without scoring.
This included a 1-0 Champions League win in 2019, a 2-0 victory in the Premier League in February 2020, another 2-0 win in November that year, a 1-0 triumph in August 2021 and a 1-0 win in February last year.
Speaking ahead of the game, Guardiola admitted he has struggled to understand why their form has been so poor in north London.
‘It happened at White Hart Lane – not just this stadium,’ he said.
‘We play good – but not able to win. It’s happened many times but hopefully we can break it.
‘Spurs are exceptional, since Mauricio Pochettino was manager. Always you think, “why are they not able to be there in the last stages of the Champions Leauge?”‘
