Sports 247 – With a reasonable match, Tottenham deserves to defeat Man City, on a day when Son Heung-min plays the role of a `superhero`.
With home field advantage, it is not surprising that Tottenham Hotspur is the team that actively presses to control the game, while despite being rated higher, Man City plays slowly and prioritizes safety.
The most notable situation came in the 11th minute, when Man City was awarded a penalty kick after Danny Rose touched the ball with his hand in the penalty area.
In the following period of the first half, the game was balanced, both teams had good opportunities of their own but could not take advantage of them successfully.
Entering the second half, the two teams continued to show their determination to score when trying to attack from the beginning.
But when faced with the most difficulty, Tottenham’s true hero spoke up, and that was none other than Son Heung-min.
With a reasonable strategy, Tottenham controlled the rest of the second half well, thereby successfully protecting the minimum victory.
