Tottenham Hotspur held Manchester City to a 2-2 draw to add even more momentum to Arsenal’s Premier League title challenge.
When Spurs and City walked down the tunnel for half time, few would have predicted the contest to end in a draw. Thomas Frank’s side were flat and insipid in the first half, and City took advantage by storming into a 2-0 lead through Rayan Cherki and Antoine Semenyo.
Even Gary Neville, who was commentating on the contest, tore into the anxious and silent atmosphere. However, Dominic Solanke woke the crowd up with two goals in 17 minutes, including a stunning ‘Scorpion Kick’ finish to level proceedings.

Spurs looked the more likely to win the contest from that moment, but could not quite create another clear cut chance. While Frank will be buoyed by his side’s resilience, Neville said: “Arsenal are the real winners.”
The draw means the Gunners will end this weekend six points clear at the top of the Premier League table. They were already boosted by Aston Villa losing to 10-man Brentford at Villa Park.
Dango Ouattara’s goal just before half time was enough for the Bees to secure a 1-0 victory over Unai Emery’s side, despite Kevin Schade getting a straight red card in the 42nd minute.
