GOAL! Spurs 0-1 Manchester City (Jesus, 22)
It's route one stuff from City as Vincent Kompany's lofted through ball finds Gabriel Jesus, who beats the offside trap before slotting a cool left-footed finish under Hugo Lloris.
That goal has been coming.
24' - Penalty to City!
Raheem Sterling is felled on the edge of the area by Hugo Lloris and Jon Moss points to the spot.
Lloris receives a booking for his troubles.
GOAL! Spurs 0-2 Manchester City (Gundogan, 25)
That's a lovely penalty.
Ilkay Gundogan steps up calmly and slots the ball into the corner off the inside of the post.
Interestingly, replays show the initial foul on Sterling by Lloris took place just outside the box, so Jon Moss was actually wrong to award a penalty.
27' - Ben Davies is booked for a nasty lunge on Vincent Kompany.
That should've been a red card, to be honest.
30' - Erik Lamela attempts to get Spurs back in the game with a shot from distance but his 25-yard effort skids wide of Ederson's goal.
Spurs have been second best in every aspect so far this evening.
33' - Chance!
David Silva connects really nicely with a shot from the edge of the area but Hugo Lloris is equal to it as he dives to his left to parry the ball away.
39' - City have been irresistible in this first half but, then again, they were also that against Manchester United last weekend.
If Spurs can reach half-time just two goals down, perhaps MoPo can work some Jose Mourinho-esque magic and inspire a comeback.
42' - Kevin De Bruyne is booked for a mistimed challenge on fellow Belgian Jan Vertonghen.
