Manchester City had lost every fixture at the venue until 2024, where they won 1-0 in the same competition, and further went on to win 2-0 in the famous Matchday 37 fixture of the Premier League 2023/24 season.

Spurs were off to a flying start, as Timo Werner opened the scoring within 5 minutes. Dejan Kulusevski made a brilliant run on the right-wing and crossed-in for the German striker, who produced a sublime finish to make it 1-0.

The home side doubled their lead in the 25th minute via Pape Sarr, who produced a stunning goal from 30 yards out, and it was once again Dejan Kulusevski with the assist.

The visitors pulled one back in the dying seconds of the first-half to make it 2-1 at half-time, but it proved to be the last goal of the match, as a dull second-half saw a goalless period and with that, Ange Postecoglou’s men sealed a memorable win.

Micky Van De Ven In Tears; Leaves The Field After 14 Minutes Due To Injury

Tottenham Hotspurs star defender Micky van de Ven suffered an injury during his side's 2-1 win against Manchester City, and was subbed-off merely 14 minutes into the match, as he seemingly suffered a hamstring injury after his tackle on Savinho.

Micky van de Ven has been a revolutionary figure at the back for Ange Postecoglou's side this season, as the Dutch full-back/centre-back  has produced moments of sheer brilliance, and if he's set to miss out for couple of weeks, Spurs will have a huge problem at the back, as they next face the high-flying Aston Villa in the Premier League.
