Good performance

While Tottenham’s performance against City was not exactly great, on a personal level, Alderweireld played well against the defending Premier League champions.

The former Ajax star could have done better for Sergio Aguero’s goal in the first half, but the Belgian international defender made some very important clearances.

According to WhoScored, the defender had a pass accuracy of 86.3%, won one header, took 92 touches, made one interception, six clearances and three blocks.
