Manchester City's 0: 3 Summary over Tottenham (Sport 1)

The gaps between Manchester City and Liverpool have never been as clear as last week.

It started with the formidable 1-4 lead of the table over the champions and continued last night (Saturday), when Liverpool lost 3-1 to Leicester, and a few hours later saw the champions on the road defeat Tottenham 0-3.

Now the gap between the two stands at 13 points, and Jürgen Klopp and his players can take comfort in only one thing: they are not the only ones left unanswered in front of Pep Guardiola's oiled machine.

City have already counted 16 consecutive wins in all competitions, and from game to game looks even more effective, predatory and scary.



The star of the game again was the wonderful Ilkai Gonduane, who scored a double - one from Ederson's cook - but suffered groin pain during the second half and was substituted.

"He will be examined and we will see what his condition is," said Pep Guardiola.

"I have said many times that he is capable of playing as an imaginary number 9 and people have laughed at me. But he is so good in this role. I am happy with his performance, he won the title of player of the month in January and if he continues like this, he will also win in February."

"A justified victory," Pep added at the conclusion.

"Tottenham have great qualities, we have already played against them this year and lost 2-0, they need almost nothing to create situations - just because of the quality and thanks to their coach. But we also have a special way and we will continue like this, we will be patient and calm."



The leading manager was asked about the decision to let Rodry kick the penalty, amid reports that he chose Ederson as his leading kicker in the current squad: "He is not the regular kicker. I appreciate his courage to take the kick, but it was not a good penalty and we were lucky. I'm not kidding. It worries me. We need to practice for it. The Champions League is coming, we have Everton in the Cup quarterfinals, and we have no real kicker. That's the reality right now. When I talk about Ederson and the Penalties, look at his cooking - passing on their pitch "Obviously he will conquer from 11 meters."



Rodry himself added: "It's not easy to beat teams like that, Tottenham are very strong so we are happy. I was a little angry in recent weeks because we missed penalties, so I took the ball and did not give it to anyone. Luckily I scored. It's a big step for us but of course nothing is over yet. "We have to keep fighting."

"Gondwana is in such good shape right now, he's full of confidence and delivers games he's never had before," Sky Sports commentator Jamie Redknapp analyzed.

"It just sums up this Manchester City - it's full of confidence."



Former City player Micha Richards added: "Gonduan is in the best shape of his life, he has freedom. I remember seeing him at the beginning of his career at City and he came in at those intervals but failed to score, or even tried to cook. Right now he has confidence."

On the losing side Jose Mourinho concluded with these words: "A very fresh team against a very tired team. We started very well, we hit the beam, 0: 1 could have given us a lot of fuel you need when you are tired. But then came one of those modern pendulums that put us in position "I'm happy. I'm happy with the attitude of the players, there were players who played two hours two days ago and gave everything they had. We made some defensive mistakes, but I can not complain about our attitude."
