19:56 , Karl Matchett

5 in a row has taken on a special which means for Manchester Metropolis and Pep Guardiola. It was supposed to suggest their pursuit of an unprecedented fifth consecutive English title. As a substitute, the quick significance comes from one other historic first. Guardiola has misplaced 5 consecutive matches, his worst ever run bookended by reverses towards Tottenham Hotspur.

If the primary scarcely left Metropolis distraught, with Guardiola unworried by exiting the Carabao Cup, the most recent was extra emphatic, extra significant, extra chastening, extra beautiful. Guardiola’s joint heaviest defeat turned a humiliation. He dangers being expelled from the title race. Metropolis may discover themselves eight factors behind Liverpool on Sunday, maybe getting back from Anfield subsequent week 11 adrift.

Empires can collapse out of the blue and dramatically however Metropolis’s was alleged to have been strengthened. This started as a night of celebration; it turned certainly one of humiliation and capitulation. The brand new-contract bounce, of Guardiola committing his future to the membership till 2027, lasted for about 12 minutes of soccer. The gaudy on-pitch presentation of the Ballon d’Or to Rodri was adopted by an illustration of how a lot Metropolis miss their injured talisman. A 3rd straight league defeat confirmed a now acquainted fragility. Metropolis had been caught on the break too simply and too usually. A workforce with no correct defensive midfielder misplaced to 1 with a potent attacking midfielder.

As a result of, whereas the Spaniard gazed on from the stands, the dominant determine was James Maddison. Maybe a match Rodri would have prevented his seven-minute double – Maddison was left unmarked for every, fantastically as he took them – because the recalled, resurgent Englishman upstaged the Metropolis supervisor and award winner. He as soon as infamously stated that, when he goes out for a roast dinner along with his household, he desires to be the principle man.

He turned this night into his twenty eighth birthday celebration. Maddison had spent a lot of the final month on the bench. This was fairly a comeback.

One other save from Vicario, denying Haaland, then De Bruyne commits a foul and the whole lot will get a bit unnecessarily offended. Pushing and shoving, everybody grouped within the Spurs field, then it settles. De Bruyne is booked for his deal with.

Remaining ideas from Richard Jolly as we enter the sport’s late levels:

“Is there any manner again for Metropolis? Guardiola shuffled the pack on the break, shifting Lewis into the center and Foden to the left, however with out making a serious distinction. He has now introduced on Kevin de Bruyne and Jack Grealish; Grealish is now the third performed to go on the left wing for Metropolis tonight. Guardiola could also be tinkering extra in desperation than with inspiration.”

76’ – Man Metropolis 0-3 Spurs

Two extra probabilities for Metropolis as Silva will get in behind the Spurs defence and tries a cut-back, nearly cleared, then Vicario is known as upon as a fierce strike is geared toward his close to publish.

The keeper berates his teammtes for letting Metropolis have this dominant spell, however then Akanji commits a foul on the sting of the field and is outraged when it’s really given.

68’ – Man Metropolis 0-3 Spurs

19:03 , Karl Matchett

Metropolis appear bereft of concepts and intent on this half. That Porro purpose has actually taken their hope and their standard ferocity.

Kevin de Bruyne is about to make his return but it surely should be some efficiency from him to assist them again into this match.

64’ – Man Metropolis 0-3 Spurs

18:57 , Karl Matchett

First change for Tottenham as captain Son is changed by Brennan Johnson, the South Korean having been on worldwide responsibility but in addition injured previous to that, so some minutes-managing there maybe. Maddison has the armband now for the guests.

“Manchester Metropolis got here from 2-0 down at house to Tottenham to win 4-2 in January 2023, an evening notable for Guardiola calling his workforce the ‘completely happy flowers’. This time, nonetheless, the third purpose of the sport has gone to Spurs. Pedro Porro was utterly unmarked, whereas the influential Kulusevski made the purpose with a wonderful run down the left.

What can Guardiola present on the break?

45’ – Man Metropolis 0-2 Spurs

18:19 , Karl Matchett

Three minutes added on. The house followers sounding very displeased at current, impatient when their workforce don’t get the ball within the field but in addition at Spurs slowing the sport down a bit.

Walker goes in on Maddison forcefully and is fortunate to flee with no reserving.

42’ – Man Metropolis 0-2 Spurs

18:14 , Karl Matchett

Vicario continues amid boos from the house crowd. He was caught increased than that by Savinho so maybe the touchdown jarred his foot considerably.

Silva provides the ball away twice in a number of seconds, Kulusevski does properly as soon as extra and Sarr bends a shot properly over the crossbar.

Son then has a taking pictures likelihood after being performed in by the Swede, who has been wonderful to date this night, however he cuts inside as an alternative and is blocked out by three defenders.

Vicario goes down once more and desires consideration.

Richard Jolly on the Emirates: “A really completely happy birthday to date for James Maddison, even when Metropolis’s celebrations of Pep Guardiola’s new contract and Rodri’s Ballon d’Or are falling a bit flat. Guardiola’s newest try to compensate for Rodri’s absence has been to play a 4-4-1-1 formation. Phil Foden is discovering house as a No 10. The issue for Metropolis is that they, with out Rodri, they haven’t tracked Maddison when he has scored. It additionally feels a bit odd to see Rico Lewis, who may have been used in the midst of that midfield, as an alternative out on the correct.”

36’ – Man Metropolis 0-2 Spurs

18:10 , Karl Matchett

Nearly an opportunity, nearly a mistake. A lofted cross sees Porro head again towards Vicario however quick – the goalkeeper has to hurry out to get there earlier than Savinho, who catches him with a lofted boot, however only a foul no card.

Guardiola in dialog on the bench along with his coaches – that new two-year deal hasn’t made any quick change to Metropolis’s fortunes.

17:58 , Karl Matchett

One other likelihood at one finish for Haaland, one other second of hazard brought on by Son on the different. Neither result in the goalkeepers needing to intervene, however Metropolis look so cautious now each time Spurs look to counter-attack.

We haven’t actually seen Foden on the ball an excessive amount of, nor out on the correct really – he’s very slim and nearly behind Haaland, leaving Walker the entire flank to run at. He hasn’t received ahead a lot but although and is struggling towards Son the opposite manner.

GOAL! 19’ – Man Metropolis 0-2 Spurs

17:52 , Karl Matchett

Richard Jolly on the Etihad:

“Early reward for a few Ange Postecoglou’s choices: bringing again James Maddison, who has scored, but in addition the ensuing shift of Dejan Kulusevski, Spurs’ finest participant this season when in midfield, to the correct wing. However Kulusevski invariably performs properly on the Etihad. He has scored right here on every of Tottenham’s three earlier journeys. Now he has an help already.

GOAL! 13’ – Man Metropolis 0-1 Spurs

17:46 , Karl Matchett

Discuss of the satan…!!

Haaland has one other likelihood and between the 2 pictures he’s had, you’d completely again him to nail one – however this one is once more off the mark, a very good strike this time exhausting and low however Vicario makes the save along with his toes.

Gundogan clips a ball excessive of the Spurs defence and Walker makes the darting run past – however can’t fairly stretch to loop a cross over.

On the different finish Son will get into the field for the primary time and fizzes a low ball over, however no person is with him in assault.

All Metropolis within the opening exchanges, and the primary actual opening falls the best way of Haaland – however his first contact is dangerous! Silva and Gvardiol open the defence up however the striker’s management is de facto poor, he can’t shift his toes and ultimately simply blams the ball straight at Ben Davies, who’s at centre-back in the present day.

Deflected behind and that’s a nook…which Spurs clear.

1’ – Man Metropolis 0-0 Spurs

17:34 , Karl Matchett

Nicely that was quick. We kick-off, Foden goes ahead…and Sarr scythes him down, incomes a yellow card inside 16 seconds!
