The exceptional José Mourinho stung Pep Guardiola for the seventh time in the history of the confrontations between the two, after managing to lead his team, Tottenham, to victory over Manchester City.
Tottenham beat Manchester City 2-0 at the top of matchday nine of the English Premier League.
Tottenham’s double came from two games in exactly the same way and with the best possible execution. Fatal bounces.
Son of the brilliant footballer in the fifth minute and the Argentine Lu Celso in the 65.
Mourinho left the ball completely to Pep Guardiola’s battalion, and the latter fell into a trap and failed to escape from it.
City had a net possession of 67%, but Tottenham came out with a smile, with two goals from two shots on goal.
Tottenham hit just two shots on goal of 4 and scored two goals, while Kevin De Bruyne’s teammates fired 22 shots, of which only 5 were on target, with few chances.
Tottenham reached 20th point at the top of the league temporarily, while City’s balance froze at 12th point in 10th place out of 8 games.
The fierce duo Harry Kane e Son led Tottenham’s attacking line, along with Stephen Bergvin, with Moussa Sissoko and Tangoy Ndombele taking part in midfield.
While Riyad Mahrez reappeared in Manchester City’s starting lineup, playing alongside Ferran Torres and Gabriel Jesus.
Guardiola, as usual, started with possession of the ball but could not stop Mourinho’s usual game either.
Harry Kane leaves the penalty area to pull the centrals with him, so Son starts behind him and waits for the pass that came this time from Ndombele and the Korean does not roar in front of the goal.
After the surprise goal, City tried to get back on the scoreboard relying on Mahrez’s advances, De Bruyne’s passes and Torres’s shots.
Emeric Laporte scored the tying goal for City in the 27th minute, but the goal was disallowed by a hand to Rodri after reverting to video technology.
The first half ended with Tottenham’s lead, who had only paid once in the half.
In the second half, with City still in control of the ball, Mourinho pushed in his first card. Lu Celso in place of Ndombele in the 64th minute.
After only 35 seconds of his participation, Lu Celso delivered the coup de grace against Guardiola.
A perfect rebound starts from defense and reaches Harry Kane, who we are used to seeing outside the penalty area, but this time a pass to Lou Celso and not to Son, and the Argentine managed to score.
Le Celso’s goal caused the despair of Guardiola’s squad, without any real attempts on Spears’ goal, with the participation of Raheem and Fodin.
Mourinho maintained his well-deserved lead, pushing Lucas Moura and Joey Rodon, and in the end he and his battalion celebrated victory with the final whistle.
