The second round of the Premier League ushered in a strong dialogue, with Manchester City playing against "Bai Baihe" Tottenham Hotspur at home. The game was almost one-sided, and Tottenham played away from home and took the lead. In the first half, Nuri retired from injury, Malmush missed the opportunity, and Johnson scored the first record. In injury time, Manchester City goalkeeper Trafford made a mistake and gave a big gift, and Palinia scored. In the end, the game ended, Manchester City lost to Tottenham 0-2 at home, and Tottenham, which won two consecutive victories, temporarily topped the league.

Manchester City starts: Trafford, Lewis, Stones, Dias (C), Ait Nuri, Nico Gonzalez, Reindes, Bob, Sherkey, Marmush, Haaland

Tottenham starts: Vicario, Polo, Romero (C), Van der Fen, Spence, Bentancur, Palinia, Pap Saar, Kudus, Brennan Johnson, and Risalisson

Both teams won big in the first round. Manchester City beat Wolves with 4 goals, Haaland scored twice, Reindes scored through a pass and scored; Tottenham defeated Burnley with 3 goals, and Richarlison scored two goals alone. In terms of past records, Manchester City faced Tottenham Hotspur in the last 12 times in the league, with a record of 4 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses. Last season, Manchester City suffered a crushing defeat at home and only had a small victory away. It is worth mentioning that Tottenham beat Manchester City four times in many competitions last season. In the 21st minute of the first half, Nouri left due to injury, Manchester City was forced to substitute, and Ak came on as a substitute. In the 35th minute, Tottenham launched a fast break, Richarlison stepped forward and broke into the penalty area and hit the ball, and Johnson scored with a push shot. The referee signaled an offside, and VAR intervened and decided that the goal was valid, and Tottenham led Manchester City 1-0.

In the first half of injury stoppage time, Manchester City goalkeeper and defender made a mistake in the penalty area, and goalkeeper Trafford directly passed the ball to his opponent. Richarlison was disturbed by Trafford before he could shoot after receiving the ball. The football reached Pallinia's feet, and Pallinia scored a strong shot, and Tottenham led 2-0. In the second half, Manchester City made various adjustments, with B-Shi, Rodri, Foden and Doku all appearing to participate. But Manchester City, which has been slow to get on, seems to have been suppressed by Tottenham, which focuses on fast breaks. In the 82nd minute of the game, Ake made a cross, B - Shi headed the ball, and the football was slightly higher than the crossbar, almost giving his teammates a good opportunity to score.

In the past 15 years, Tottenham has beaten Manchester City away for two consecutive seasons. It is worth mentioning that Reindez, a talented midfielder who performed well in the last game and was worth 55 million, made no achievements in this game. Haaland, who lost midfield support, was completely silent.
