Tottenham's Title Hopes Dented as Haaland Inspires City Win
Conte's men fall to defeat against relentless champions
Erling Haaland scores twice to seal vital victory
Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League title hopes suffered a blow as Manchester City secured a hard-fought 2-0 victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday. The relentless reigning champions produced a dominant display to put pressure on Arsenal ahead of their showdown with Manchester United later in the day.
Erling Haaland, in scintillating form this season, was once again the star of the show for City. The Norwegian striker broke the deadlock in the 51st minute with a clinical finish, brilliantly assisted by Kevin De Bruyne. Tottenham battled gamely but were unable to find an equalizer, and Haaland struck again in the 90th minute to seal the points.
The result leaves City two wins away from securing a fifth Premier League title in six years. Tottenham, meanwhile, remain in third place, five points behind their title rivals.
