MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
37. Mahrez takes the long range shot on again, this time opting for power over precision. His blaster whistles over from 25 yards out.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
35. Make that eight!
Mahrez skips in off the right wing, and aims for the far corner with a left-footed curler, ‘his party-piece’ as Martin Tyler refers to it.
Lloris knows he’s beaten as he scampers along his line and into the air, but there’s not quite enough whip on the ball to bring it back towards the net.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
34. City have been so dominant yet still can’t find a way through.
In fact, they’ve not even managed a shot on target yet despite having seven attempts.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
31. The City players can’t believe it as the whistle is blown for a free-kick following Dias’ sliding challenge on Kane.
Replays show a perfect execution from the centre-back in winning the ball, but Paul Tierney is adamant that a foul is the right decision.
However, having made that call, the referee again fails to issue a yellow card to the centre-back.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
30. Sterling’s pace gets him on the end of a pass inside the area ahead of Lloris, and although he manages to squeeze a shot beyond the goalkeeper, he never had the right angle to find the target.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
29. Kane won his fitness battle to start this afternoon, not that anyone has noticed.
The striker has touched the ball just six times so far.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
27. That is a booking! Reguillon scythes down De Bruyne on the far side, right under the note of the linesman.
Paul Tierney is straight across with the yellow card.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
26. Post! What a block!
Alderweireld throws himself at Foden’s close-range shot, somehow managing to divert it on to the frame of the goal and behind for a corner.
For how much longer can Tottenham hang on?
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
25. Laporte gets away with one.
The French defender first miscontrols a straightforward pass, and then pulls down Lucas once the Tottenham forward has stolen in.
It should bring a yellow card, but Paul Tierney bottles the decision.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
23. De Bruyne stands over the free-kick, but the wall does its job with one member taking the ball in the face for his team.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
22. It requires three defenders to stop Gundogan from forcing his way in on goal, but Spurs’ resolve is quickly ruined by Lo Celso foolishly fouling De Bruyne five yards outside of the penalty area.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
20. Steffen deals with the corner by punching clear, but only as far as Alderweireld, who registers Tottenham’s first shot with a wide one from 20 yards.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
19. Spurs manage to get down the other end of the field, and win a corner that their fans celebrate like a goal.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
18. I’m not sure if Spurs have been out of their own half yet. City have had nearly 70% possession and spent almost half of the game so far in their attacking third.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
16. Foden runs rings around Lo Celso and Reguillon. The only way to stop him is to foul him. It’s magnificent stuff.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
14. Great block from Dier!
City seize the initiative with a quick throw-in on the left that sends Foden to the touchline. The young forward keeps his cool to pick out Sterling in the middle, who takes one touch before hitting a shot towards the far corner.
It has Lloris beaten, but somehow Dier gets across to divert the ball away with his calf.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
13. Sterling and De Bruyne exchange passes inside the area that have the Tottenham defencing raising their arms in unison.
There’s no offside flag from the linesman, however, and it means Ryan Mason’s team will now have to face a corner.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
10. It’s been relentless City pressure in the opening ten.
Lloris makes a meal of an inswinging corner, and then Sterling gets to run at a panicked Spurs defence once again.
Is an opener inevitable, or can Totttenham ride this out?
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
8. The City attacks keep on coming.
Foden, De Bruyne and Walker all pass up opportunities to cross before Mahrez takes charge by standing a delivery up from the right. Sterling gets his head to it, up above Alderweireld, but steers well wide.
The two players actually clashed heads in their efforts to meet the ball, but both are good to continue.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
7. Close from Foden!
Sterling gets to the byline by turning Aurier inside out, and then presents a low pass to the City youngster at the near post. Foden, attempting to sweep in, pulls his shot a yard wide.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
6. Spurs play it calmly out from the back despite pressure from De Bruyne and Foden.
Somewhere, Jose Mourinho is turning in his managerial grave.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
4. An early fright for Spurs as a Son mistake presents Sterling with the opportunity to run at the last defender.
The City forward gets into the box, but before he can get a shot away, Aurier gets back to win back possession. Nicely done from the Spurs defender.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
2. Pep Guardiola has sprung a surprise early on, and it looks as though De Bruyne is playing in a striker’s role for the holders.
Sterling is on the left with Foden floating in the gap between the two.
MAN CITY 0-0 SPURS
1. The two teams take the knee at kick-off to applause from the 8,000 fans inside Wembley, and then Sterling of Manchester City gets the action underway.
As the designated home team, Manchester City are in their sky blue shirts and white shorts while Spurs are wearing their dark green away kit; both have the heart of the NHS emblazoned on their tops.
PEEEEEEEERRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!
THE CARABAO CUP FINAL IS UNDERWAY!
