Manchester City will be desperate for revenge against Tottenham this weekend
Manchester City will be determined to strike back against Tottenham this weekend after being knocked out of the Champions League by Spurs in controversial circumstances on Wednesday.
City lost the first leg 1-0, won the wild second encounter 4-3, but were dumped out of the tournament by away goals.
Much of the controversy stems from the decision to allow Fernando Llorente’s crucial striker as VAR missed the ball striking his arm.
Tensions sky-rocketed at the climax of the game as Raheem Sterling’s late ‘winner’ was ruled out by video technology as Sergio Aguero was offside in the build-up.
The stakes remain high in the Premier League encounter with a slip for either side likely to prove costly in City’s battle for the title or Spurs’ fight for a top-four place.
Pep Guardiola and Mauricio Pochettino will be determined to re-focus their players ahead of the Easter weekend showpiece game.
