Coming on in the 69th minute of that latest victory, Ortega Moreno made three huge saves with the score at 1-0 to maintain our lead.

It continued a run in which he has saved the last 11 shots on his goal.

He has also started four times in the league, making a total of eight saves across those matches.

He was named Man of the Match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with City now just one win away from a record fourth straight Premier League title.

The goalkeeper's excellence in this latest performance is proven by Spurs' xG of 1.66, which means they would have been expected to score once or twice given the chances they created.

In total, he has now played 18 matches this season, including every game in the FA Cup.

Both City goals at Spurs came from Erling Haaland, who now looks very likely to win the Premier League Golden Boot.

He's netted 27 in 30 league appearances so far in this campaign.

His first was supplied by the trustiest of suppliers - Kevin De Bruyne.

That was De Bruyne's 112th Premier League assist, making him outright second for that stat in the league's history.

He has required just 259 appearances to rack up so many, with Cesc Fabregas (now in third on 111) playing 350 games in the division.

It was also the 18th time De Bruyne has teed up Haaland since the start of the 2022/23 season, with the next best partnership in the Premier League between
