Oh snap, Toby is down. Hope it is nothing serious. Rodon is about to come on to make his debut.
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.

fantastic performance by Aldeweireld. Hopefully his injury isn't serious, so he can build on his form

Looks like groin injury to Toby. That could rule him out for 2 to 3 weeks.

Tremendous defensive organization by Spurs...

Quite surprised to see some City players resorting to self help...
yup, lock up the spaces--especially in the wide areas and they struggle.
