Manchester City's crushing 0-4 loss to Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium was a deeply painful result for City fans. Tottenham delivered a masterclass performance, with James Maddison scoring two early goals (13' and 20'), followed by a sensational second-half goal from Pedro Porro (52') and a late strike by Brennan Johnson in stoppage time (90+3).

Key players like Erling Haaland and Bernardo Silva were subdued, while defensive lapses allowed Tottenham to exploit gaps clinically. Despite making tactical changes, including introducing Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish, Pep Guardiola's side couldn’t break down a resilient Spurs defense.
