Manchester City's first defeat and Timo Werner's first goal came at the same time Tottenham eliminated Manchester City 2-1 to reach the last eight of the Carabao Cup

At 04:15 a.m. on October 31, Beijing time, the League Cup round of 16 ushered in the Premier League BIG6 battle, and Tottenham Hotspur hosted Manchester City.

In the first half, Kulusevski assisted Wijnal to score his first goal of the season, which also broke the German striker's 234-day goal drought, and then Kulusevski assisted Sarr to extend the score from distance, Savinho assisted Nunes to pull one back, Van der Ven retired injured, and Tottenham led 2-1 at half-time; In the second half, Timo Werner missed a solo shot, Richarlison missed a good chance and Savinho went off injured.

In the end, Tottenham Hotspur sent Manchester City to the first defeat of the season 2-1 and successfully advanced to the top 8 of the League Cup!

Tottenham vs Manchester City,Postecoglou lined up in a 433 formation with a starting value of 450 million euros, Solanke stepped forward, flanked by Johnson and Timo Werner, Kulusevski, Bentancur and Sarr formed a midfield three, Archie Gray, Romero, Dragusin and Van der Ven formed a back four, and Vicario was in goal；Pep Guardiola rotated a 4141 formation, with a starting value of 471 million euros, Foden played as a center forward, Nunes, McCarty, O'Reilly, and Ovinho formed four midfielders, Gundogan kept the goal, Ake, Dias, Stones, and Lewis formed a back four, and Ortega kept the goal。

In this campaign, Guardiola's whole change of formation effect is obviously not good, Foden can't play a center forward, and Gundogan can play a single back is enough. City had empty possession and no threat at all, and Tottenham fought back resolutely with plenty of shots on goal. Wienal's first goal of the season also broke the embarrassing 234-day goal drought, but Wienal's goal immediately returned to his original appearance, and he missed a single knife again. Kulusevski was very active, providing two assists and Sarr also scored a goal. For Manchester City, Nunes cherished the opportunity to play, played very hard, and played very well, scoring a goal, but his teammates pulled his hips. For Manchester City, the worst performers were Ruben Dias, Gundogan and Foden, and Ruben Dias in particular was in a very low state. In the end, Tottenham sent Manchester City to their first defeat of the season 2-1 at home in all competitions, and the Carabao Cup exit is not a bad thing for Manchester City, who have suffered injuries from Rodri and De Bruyne on multiple fronts.

Manchester City's defeat in this campaign also exposed that the center forward does not have any substitution problems except Haaland, and there is a serious shortage of people in the midfield position. In my personal opinion, Alvarez's departure is a lose-lose situation, otherwise the little spider can play Haaland's position or De Bruyne's position.

Full game,Tottenham managed just 32 per cent possession but had a total of 11 shots on goal with 7 of them on target; Manchester City had a total of 15 shots on goal but only 3 on target, the weakness and lack of creativity are already the stubborn diseases of the Blue Moon Legion.
