Handball, should be ruled out.
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

Reguilon defended well there. Did all the right thing to dispose Mahrez and tuck his hands behind his back avoid getting the ball hit to it.

The defensive shape looks solid. They are closing all the gaps.

Very strong defensive performance by Aldeweireld, individually and the 11 players, collectively. One or two lack of concentration has proven very dangerous.

As for City, they need to shoot from outside the box and make quick passes in the middle. Everytime they have done that, they have moved the Tottenham block. I know they are trying to work the wide areas, like Pep likes, but Tottenham is prepared for that.

Nice way to see out the half.

Toby is giving someone, who said he is finished, a lot of humble pie to eat :rotf:.

As expected. Next up the Torres vs Barcelona moment. Bale or Moura perhaps.

Yep. Na handball.

Spurs defending very well and possess the threat on the counter attack to close the game in the second half as long as they don't self destruct.

Coming out for the second half will be crucial. This is where City is dangerous as they will go straight on the attack so all the players have to stay alert and concentrated.

Aurier playing defensively well so far. We all know he can't maintain that discipline for 90 minutes as he just did there.

City are helping Lloris pad up his stats with saves. They are all routine saves.

My money on a Spurs second....
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Kevin DB is a cyborg.
This man is at one minute defending his 18 yard box
and the next minute is leading the charge into the Tottenham box.
