Premier League: Tottenham stuns Manchester City at the Etihad
Tottenham pulls off another masterstroke at the Etihad. Thomas Frank's Spurs continue their outstanding start to the season with a 2-0 victory over Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.
Brennan Johnson opened the scoring after a lightning-quick counter-attack, confirmed by VAR (37'), before Joao Palhinha capitalized on a massive blunder from goalkeeper James Trafford to double the lead just before halftime (45+2').
After showing signs of resurgence last week, Pep Guardiola's side collapsed this time, plagued by sloppy mistakes and a lack of attacking sharpness, despite a few chances for Haaland and Marmoush.
With this win, Tottenham climbs to the top of the Premier League, boasting six points from two matches and looking impressively solid. After last season's bitter disappointment, the Spurs now have every reason to dream big.
