#4 The scoring substitute
Trending
Harry Kane was a spectator for much of the match as the English forward failed to influence the game and remained isolated for large parts of the first half. As a way of drawing him into the game, Pochettino introduced Son into the mix after the break. The Korean international’s involvement gave Spurs a stronger foothold before the substitute himself equalised.
His goal came at the back of Kyle Walker’s push on Sterling as Christian Eriksen passed the ball to Kane who flicked it towards Son with a lovely bit of footwork. The winger finished with a wonderful strike that left little for the keeper to do. City's shoddy defensive work was on display yet again as Son scored. Not a single defender was anywhere near any of the players involved in the goal. The Spurs attackers were free to pick their pass and place their shot as they remained unchallenged from the opposition.
