Man City 2-2 Tottenham: 5 talking points after Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspurs draw

#2 Out of territory- Ederson

Man City 2-2 Tottenham

Tottenham did not take much time to equalise the score for the first time. However, the way how it was equalized was funny and surprising as it was clear that Ederson did not see it coming.

Manchester City were playing a high-line, and Tottenham quickly got into Manchester City’s territory in a quick attack. Erik Lamela saw Ederson in a wrong position. Since, the Brazilian International was way ahead of the goal-line.

Thus, the Argentine International too the risk and shot the ball in the lower-post, which gave no time to Ederson to react. Indeed, it was a howler by the goalkeeper, as he was in a really inappropriate position. This mistake by him made Manchester City drop the initial lead they have over the Londoners.

Overall, Ederson had an underwhelming game, as two goals conceded by him could have been stopped, and Manchester City would have been marching as victorious.
