The full time whistle goes and brings to an end a frantic final 15 minutes of the game. Spurs deserved their late winner but it's a bad away day for Man City, who also had Ireland sent off for a nasty tackle on Lee.

Defoe almost gets a second but his shot is punched away by Isaksson.

Tainio comes on for Berbatov. The Bulgarian's had a good game.

Berbatov races onto a ball over the Man City defence - but he's offside.

Referee Mark Halsey must be getting cramp in his hand - it's Jenas who goes into the book this time.

Mark Halsey does send off a Man City player - but it's Ireland not Garrido for a two-footed lunge on Lee.

Garrido is lucky not to get his marching orders after a bad challenge on Defoe. The Man City full back has already been booked but ref Halsey just awards a free kick to Spurs.

Defoe comes on for Bent - the former Charlton striker's miserable Spurs career continues. He missed two good chances in the first half.

Dunne is booked for a late hack at Zokora.

Man City are living dangerously with some of their defending. Lennon is the latest to be brought down on the edge of the area.

The second 45 has begun in a more leisurely fashion after a frantic first half.

The second half gets underway amidst suggestions Chimbonda was offside when he scored. TV replays aren't conclusive.

Spurs take a late but deserved first half lead through Chimbonda's goal in an end-to-end tussle. Bent had two good chances for the home side while Man City have been limited to long range efforts.

The deadlock is finally broken as Lennon's free kick into the Man City box is flicked on by Berbatov for Chimbonda to prod home.

Bent should have made Isaksson work but the Spurs hitman blazes an angled drive over the bar.

Lennon's blue boots must have dazzled Garrido, who brings down the Spurs winger and is the first into ref Halsey's book.

Berbatov is in the mood today - another great pass from the Bulgarian finds Malbranque but his shot is deflected wide for a corner. Good move.

It's end-to-end stuff as Man City now get a chance to take the lead - but Petrov blazes over.

First real chance of the game as Berbatov releases Bent with a clever pass but Isaksson comes off his line to smother the ball.
