A little consequential irony defined Saturday’s Premier League match between Tottenham and Man City as the first beat City 1-0.
Tettenham secured the feat withouut their star scorer, Hrary Kane, whose relationship with the club has been a bit shaky in recent times.
On the other hand, City featured their 100m euros catch, Grealish but to no avail.
– Tottenham beat Man City without Harry Kane as Son Heung-Min nets only goal.
– Nuno Espirito Santo started his tenure as Tottenham Hotspur manager with a 1-0 win over 2020-21 Premier League champions Manchester City on Sunday.
– Harry Kane, who has been linked with a move to City, wasn’t in the squad for the match.
– Heung-Min scored the game’s only goal in the second half after a strong counter-attack from Tottenham.
– The goal came against the run of play with City dominating possession and shots.
– Steven Bergwijn found Son who had raced down the pitch. He slotted the ball past Ederson who didn’t have time to dive to save it.
– England captain Kane only returned to training with Spurs on Friday after an extended break following Euro 2020.
