Tottenham Hotspur produced a superb performance to beat Manchester City 1-0 this afternoon – and Sergio Reguilon produced a great display.
The situation surrounding Harry Kane’s future and a potential move to City threatened to cast a shadow over Nuno Espirito Santo’s first game in charge, but Tottenham were outstanding.
Yes, they had to ride an early wave of attacks from City, but Tottenham were committed and full of passion throughout as they came away winners.
Son Heung-min bagged the winner, firing a left-footed strike into the corner of the net having wasted a couple of previous openings.
Tottenham saw out the game well, and fans were delighted with the performance – even chanting ‘are you watching Harry Kane?’
A number of players were superb for Nuno, and left back Reguilon really got back to top form by shackling Riyad Mahrez.
The £27m signing from Real Madrid last summer had a tricky second half of last season, but justified his selection ahead of Ben Davies with a fine performance.
Tottenham fans took to Twitter to react to Reguilon’s display, branding him ‘world class’ and ‘fantastic’.
Others felt that Reguilon was ‘immense’, praising his display even if he went a little under the radar.
