Tottenham crush Man City at White Heart Lane
Tottenham striker, Harry Kane, scored his first goal in over 640 minutes of football as he helped Spurs come from behind to beat Barclays Premier League leaders Manchester City 4-1 at White Hart Lane.

He’s unlikely to get the sack any time soon, given their start to the season, but if fellow manager Brendan Rodgers can find himself under such pressure already, the Chilean will equally be feeling the heat at the moment. This is the most important thing. “I said in the press conference on Friday that we needed to compete with them because we are young, and we did that today”. “We must play every game as a final in the future”.
Spurs hauled themselves level on the stroke of half-time after a poorly struck clearance from De Bruyne fell to the Dier who duly obliged from 25 yards.
Toby Alderweireld headed Spurs ahead in the 50th minute before Kane, in an offside position, ended his drought when he swept home in the 61st minute after a Christian Eriksen freekick rebounded back off the bar. “We have two tough games, in the Europa League (at Monaco) and at Swansea”.
Having appeared so dominant in their opening five league games, when they did not concede a goal, Pellegrini’s side suddenly appear vulnerable, casting doubt over their title credentials.
For City, who arrived at White Hart Lane at the head of the table, the manner of defeat was alarming, with goalkeeper Willy Caballero – in for the injured Joe Hart – enduring a troubled afternoon. “It’s a calf problem from the Juventus game and he hasn’t recovered from that”.
“I think he can improve his quality”.
Pellegrini’s side could have been 2-0 up but for the hand of Lloris who got down well to his right to deny Raheem Sterling. “We will have to wait until tomorrow (Sunday) or Monday to decide if they are 100 percent”.
But his mistake for the second goal was terrible and getting in a tangle with Martin Demichelis for the fourth wasn’t great either.
“We didn’t play very well in the first half against West Ham, or in the second half here”, he told BT Sport.

History suggests that Manchester City deserve their favourites status in this match. “It is hard when you are losing 2-1 to change the game”.
