FA Cup holder Manchester City booked their place in the fifth round after clinching a tight 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Friday.

After moving to Spurs’ new stadium in 2019, City had never won nor even scored a goal at Tottenham. City had lost their last four league games there without scoring any goal.

They also suffered a 1-0 defeat in the Champions League semifinal in 2019, before winning the second leg 4-3.

But Nathan Ake’s flick in the 88th minute on Friday allowed them to rewrite history.

Spurs’ goalie Guglielmo Vicario didn’t clear Kevin De Bruyne’s corner clearly and Ake flicked the ball from close range.

Tottenham couldn’t complain since Pep Guardiola’s side was the best side during the match, Stefan Ortega even barely made a save.

Guardiola said they were trying to defend the FA Cup title and performed incredibly well. Manchester City dominated the first half with Oscar Bobb’s effort ruled out for offside.

Guardiola changed the rhythm by sending on Jeremy Doku and De Bruyne with 25 minutes remaining. The Belgium’s captain fired just inches wide after a mistake by Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

The host only managed to produce one shot on target, even with the first appearance of James Maddison since suffering an ankle injury in November.

This FA Cup match saw Tottenham’s first failure to score in a competitive match since Ange Postecoglou took charge.
