  1. Steven N’Zonzi’s goal – A Charlie Adam free kick is shaped towards the near post, with three Stoke runners making moves beyond a static Spurs defence; N’Zonzi flicks the ball goal-wards, and Lloris is unable to keep it out, despite getting a palm to it.   Adam seems to take a strange run-up, quickly placing […]

  5. Samir Nasri’s goal – Tevez drags Vertonghen out wide, beats him, and finds Milner, who bursts between Parker and Assou-Ekotto. His intelligent cut back is volleyed goal-wards by Nasri, and beats Walker on the line.   Manchester City break for the first time in the game, and Tevez finds himself one-on-one with Vertonghen. Parker begins […]
