Son Heung-Min scored Tottenham's equaliser against Man City
City started well and had the first real chance of the match when Kevin De Bruyne poked the ball through Spurs' back line to Pablo Zabaleta, but the Argentine was crowded out by Toby Alderweireld.
Pep Guardiola’s side were really pressurising Spurs’ defence, and almost went ahead when David Silva struck from distance, but Hugo Lloris got down well to save.

Raheem Sterling scored the opening goal of the game
Sergio Aguero then went close with a glancing header after Kevin Wimmer’s loose pass.
Spurs somehow managed to hold off City until half-time but after the break the hosts took the lead.
De Bruyne’s pass was latched on to by Leroy Sane, who beat Lloris to the ball before stroking it into the net.

Spurs went further behind when Raheem Sterling’s cross was spilled by Lloris, and De Bruyne was on hand to stab the ball home.
Tottenham looked dead and buried but they found a away back into the match when Dele Alli headed home Kyle Walker’s cross.
City thought they should have had a penalty when Walker appeared to push Sterling, but the calls were waved away by the referee.

Dele Alli got Spurs back into the game
Guardiola was furious and the Spaniard became even more frustrated moments later as Spurs went up the other end and bagged an equaliser through Son.
City sent on new man Gabriel Jesus as they went looking for a winner, and the Brazilian almost made immediate impact as he put the ball in the net at the far post, but the strike was ruled out for offside.
But the hosts couldn't fine the winner and both sides had to settle for a point.
