What a night in the Champions League that was. Four goals in the first half had tensions ever higher inside the Etihad.
City looked to be at their unbelievable best with their goals having that special bit of quality that often comes under the Champions League lights. But despite their injuries and the constant onslaught from City, Heung-Min Son stepped up yet again with two goals.
Pochettino’s attitude around the togetherness within his team and not counting on individuals really paid off last night. Both Llorente and Wanyama put in stellar performances for their team after rarely being called upon this season.
Spurs fought right to the very end and it was all snatched away from them after Raheem Sterling grabbed what seemed to be his hat-trick. VAR, of course, had other ideas with the goal being disallowed for offside.
This match is definitely up there with the best the Champions League has ever seen, here’s how we rated the Spurs players performances:
