All the talk beforehand was whether Tottenham's goalscoring talisman Kane, strongly linked with a big-money move to City, would be involved. City enjoyed the lion's share of possession but their best chance came early on when Riyad Mahrez sliced wide.

Tottenham became increasingly ambitious on the counter-attack with Son failing to make the most of a couple of good positions.
