Despite haaland

Manchester City: Tottenham Hotspur secured back-to-back Premier League wins under new manager Thomas Frank, defeating Manchester City 2-0 once again at the Etihad Stadium here on Saturday. Having thrashed City 4-0 in November with a dazzling display, the Spurs returned to claim another three points, this time through a disciplined defensive performance.

Spurs began hesitantly as Omar Marmoush connected with Pedro Porro's wayward header, firing a shot that narrowly missed the far post before unleashing a powerful long-range effort that Guglielmo Vicario expertly denied.

The Egyptian remained threatening in the opening stages, forcing another outstanding save from the Tottenham keeper after being set up by Erling Haaland.
