EPL: Solanke’s brace seals stunning Tottenham comeback vs Man City

Tottenham secured a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Manchester City at Tottenham Stadium on Saturday, coming from two goals down to earn a valuable point.

Manchester City dominated the first half, with Semenyo and Cherki putting the visitors 2-0 ahead. Semenyo opened the scoring with a precise finish, and Cherki extended the lead before the break, leaving Spurs under pressure.

Tottenham responded after the interval. An unfortunate own goal by Guehi gave Spurs a route back into the game, and Dominic Solanke capitalized on the opportunity to pull one back. Spurs continued to press and were rewarded when Solanke scored again, completing a remarkable turnaround.

The result leaves Tottenham with a hard-earned point, demonstrating resilience and determination against one of the Premier League’s strongest sides.

Tottenham forward Dominic Solanke, speaking to Sky Sports: “It was a game of two halves. The first half was difficult we could not get near them at times. The second half was a different story. In the second half we were great and grew with confidence and belief and could have gone on to win it. We know we need to start games quicker.

“A few tactical tweaks. At half time we had a chance to do that. In the second half we had to show fight and belief and I thought we did.

We needed to change something because it was very difficult to press. We made that change and it worked very well. We know we haven’t been as good as we want to be in the league and we need the fans behind us. When we are all together I think we can fly.

“We are trying to build on it. That is four games unbeaten now and we want to start winning games for sure.

We need to focus on that and keep building. When everyone is on it and we have the crowd and everyone has that confidence and belief we know we can beat anyone.”
