And I must admit, Tottenham have been brilliant and disciplined in these two matches, and they haven't conceded a single goal. While this is just the beginning, if Tottenham can be consistent, they could pose a threat to other teams.
Tottenham have a solid defense, especially against Manchester City, and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario was also brilliant, successfully repelling all Manchester City attacks and maintaining a 0-2 scoreline until the end. Both goals came in the first half, and a team of Manchester City's stature should have scored in the second half and even turned the game around. However, their hard work was not rewarded, as Tottenham performed very well overall.
I would say that City played quite poorly in that match, as it was truly embarrassing for them to lose 2-0 at their own stadium, especially with Trafford’s mistake, which was particularly disappointing.. i could see how City fans struggled to believe what they were witnessing. On top of that, the team lacked rhythm, looked uncoordinated, and showed a fragile defense, while also failing to capitalize on numerous chances, all of which made City’s performance yesterday look very poor.
On the other hand, Tottenham played with great discipline and adaptability. They kept pressing City’s defense, forcing another mistake, and then added a second goal. Overall, Tottenham was tactically clever and able to exploit the gaps in City’s defense, which appeared far from solid, and that ultimately enabled them to win the match.
