#3 Moura again proves to be the supersub
Lucas Moura scored uncannily after just being introduced for nineteen seconds on the pitch, exploiting Kyle Walker's complacency to bring much needed composure to his side.
The Brazillian was one of the standout performers at Spurs last season, most notably single-handedly bailing them out against Ajax during last year's UEFA Champions League Semifinal tie and performed in a similar capacity during this match.
Moura's goal shifted Pochettino's mindset to seeing out the game. Spurs were content to give the ball away and wait for a counter attacking opportunity. Moura was diligent in helping out his fullback and led expansive forays into City's half, with one of those nearly resulting in another Erik Lamela goal, but the Argentine wasted his shot.
The sight of the Brazillian standing at the touchline, ready to come on, will perhaps now signal a strange kind of excitement for his onfield teammates and trepidation for his opponents. He has done it so many times that attaching the moniker of the supersub to his name won't be an exaggeration.
