When they last met City on Jan. 19, Spurs had a similar strong first-half advantage before giving up four goals in a second-half meltdown, but the North London club flipped the script this time.

The home team had a tense final period when defender Cristian Romero was sent on 88 minutes for a careless tackle on Jack Grealish, but they were still able to maintain their lead and earn a crucial three points.
