Manchester City losing at the Etihad is a very unpopular sight considering the fortress of a squad they have, but Tottenham Hotspur had other ideas when they visited the Blues last night for one of the best matches we have witnessed thus far in the season.
Harry Kane, who was previously rumoured for a move to the Manchester club, caused Pep and his team misery and pain after scoring twice in the second half to clinch a famous 2-3 victory over City.
Kane, who certainly wasn't in his best form last season and the start of this term, deservingly claimed the man of the match (MOTM) title after putting on one his best performances throughout his footballing career.
From the get-go, Kane was blistering in attack and the way he contained the ball showed us glimpses of the kind of top top player he is. The moment he released Son, who stood his ground and timed his run perfectly without being caught offside, you knew Spurs were set to steal the lead.
Son is always a threat, especially when you give him the freedom to sprint freely, which he did after being squared by Kane, and it did not end there, as he had more work to do.
So unselfishly, he assisted new boy Dejan Kulusevski from the left flank, and the lad squeezed past between the legs of Cancelo to make it 1-0.
City defenders had to take it on the chin for committing numbers for the first goal. Dias and Laporte were exposed, leaving only Cancelo to cover, but the clever finish by Kulusevski was enough to put Spurs in front.
City equalised late before half-time through a well-taken goal by their captain, Gundogan.
Spurs defended for their lives, and they refused to concede a second goal.
Etihad was stunned for the second time last night after Kane had restored the lead for Spurs in the 59th minute.
Later, the men in white thought they had extended their lead after Kane found the net past the 70th minute mark, only to have it ruled out after Kulusevski found himself offside before assisting the English man.
Deep into 90 minutes, City earned themselves a penalty after Romero had handled the ball, courtesy of a Bernando Silva's cross.
Mahrez stepped up and nailed in an absolute thunderbolt, leaving Lloris with little chance or none although he went the right way.
Just when you think City, who had dominated the game thoroughly, were safely stepping out with a point, but it was not the case as Spurs refused to leave with a draw.
Kulusevski, this time, with an inch perfect run after being released by Bentancur, put in a top-notch cross to find Kane, who was lurking and came up big against his fellow countryman, Kyle Walker, to head in the stoppage time winner in the 94th minute.
As much as Spurs needed that goal to win and climb the ladder to stand a chance in the top four, Liverpool fans had the final dance as the win had blown the title race wide open.
Earlier, Liverpool faced Norwich and went through a tough test after falling behind early in the second half through a deflected goal.
In the past, Liverpool have so often left it late to take home maximum points, and the call was alarming once again yesterday.
They showed great character and pulled one back through Sadio Mane before Mo Salah gave them the lead within two minutes after the first goal. The Red press, at the end, was too much for Norwich to take, and they sealed the win after Henderson's through pass found Luis Diaz, who went on to bag his first goal for Liverpool after his big money move from Porto during the January transfer window.
Six points behind leaders City, with a game in hand, Liverpool have all the rights to still stay in title race. What seemed like one-horse race, has now turned into a two-horse race, unless Chelsea show good interests as well.
Liverpool fans, brace yourselves. We are up for a narrow end to the season. YNWA!
