Full-time participation … Stamina decreased due to extended FA Cup play
Tottenham, up to ninth place … 1 win 4 loss in the last 5 games
Heung-min Sohn’s toe, exhausted, was off, and Tottenham lost a scoreless scoreline to Manchester City (Man City) late in the game.
Tottenham lost 3-0 after scoring a multiple goal to Ilkai Gundoan in round 24 of the 2020-2021 English Premier League (EPL) away game against Man City at Manchester’s Etihad Stadium on the 14th (Korean time) ).
Son Heung-min played full time, but was unable to increase the point of attack.
He could not score two consecutive goals in the regular league, the 14th goal in the league and the 18th in the official game.
With 10 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses, Tottenham dropped one notch to ninth with 36 points.
Tottenham are very slow at 1-4 in their last 5 games.
Tottenham also recorded a second consecutive loss in the official match on the 11th, following their defeat in the FA Cup 16 round against Everton on the 11th.
On the other hand, Man City consolidated the leadership (53 points, 16 wins, 5 draws, 2 losses) with 10 consecutive wins in the regular league and undefeated in 14 games.
The gap between second place Leicester City, who played one more game, is 7 points.
Tottenham went on to be the best, starting with the duo of Son Heung-min and Harry Kane, but they showed a very frustrating performance, perhaps from exhaustion of physical strength due to a prolonged 120-minute fight against Everton three days ago.
As Tottenham was completely defeated by Man City in the momentum fight, Son Heung-min had to act as a side defender and left attacker, and in the end, he couldn’t even fire a single shot.
Kane, who rose to the top, was unable to show anything except a surprise shot from the left side of the penalty area after receiving a pass from Son Heung-min in the 18th minute of the first half.
In Man City, midfielder Gundoan, who recently showed offense, participated in all three goals and led the team to victory.
Gündoan hit the ball into the penalty area in the middle of the first half and induces a Pierre-Emil Hoivier foul.
Hoivier’s shot touched Gündoan’s right ankle lightly.
Rodry’s kicker kicked to the left of the goal in the 23rd minute was hit by goalkeeper Hugo Joris and headed inside the goal, becoming Manchester City’s first goal.
In the 5th minute of the second half, after going through a pass pass in front of Tottenham’s goal with his teammates, Gundoan scored an additional goal with a left-footed shot from the left side of the goal area.
Raheem Sterling recorded the help.
In the 21st minute of the second half, Gundoan ended up winning 3-0 over Tottenham defender Davinson Sánchez with a left foot in the lower right corner of the goal after receiving a long pass from goalkeeper Ederson in the counter-attack situation.
Tottenham sought a reversal by putting Delhi Ali and Garus Bale in the second half, but faced defeat without making any changes.
