EPL: Tottenham thrash City 4-0 at Etihad Stadium
James Maddison scored twice as Tottenham trampled Manchester City 4-0 at Etihad Stadium this morning.
The loss is the now the 5th in a row, a feat they have only achieved back in 2006.
Pedro Porro drove home a third before Brennan Johnson added a last minute fourth on an incredible night that saw the end of City's 52-match unbeaten record at Etihad Stadium, stretching back to just before the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
It is City's worst home league defeat since a 5-1 loss to Tottenham's north London rivals Arsenal in 2003.
It was also the first time they have lost three successive English Premier League games under Pep Guardiola, who signed a two-year contract extension 48 hours earlier.
Guardiola had never previously lost a home game by four goals in his managerial career.
City remain in second but Liverpool will stretch their lead at the top to eight points if they win at Southampton tomorrow.
Tottenham move up to sixth, four points behind City.
In other matches in this morning, Chelsea beat Leicester 2-1, Arsenal beat Nottingham Forest 3-0, Brighton beat Bournemouth 2-1, Aston Villa and Crystal Palace finished the match in a 2-all draw while Everton and Wolves finished the match in a 0-all.
Liverpool is leading the table with 28 points, Manchester City is second with 23 points, Chelsea is third with 22 points while Arsenal is rounding off the top 4 with 22 points as well.
