The scoring spectacle commenced with a daring play from Hugo Lloris, which inadvertently benefited Jesus Navas. Unfortunately for Tottenham, the French goalkeeper found himself at the heart of his team’s second goal as well. A series of poor clearances led to Sandro deflecting Negredo’s shot into his own net. Sergio Aguero then extended City’s lead before the halftime whistle.
The second half continued the onslaught, with Aguero finding the net once again, followed by goals from Navas and Negredo, completing a comprehensive humiliation of Tottenham by the relentless Citizens.
The defeat significantly impacts Tottenham’s position in the league table, as they now find themselves in 9th place after the rain of goals at the Etihad Stadium.
