Man City stunned as Madrid & Ronaldo halted - Opta's weekend review

League leaders before the weekend, Manchester City suffered a second consecutive league defeat on Saturday as they were on the wrong end of a 4-1 mauling at White Hart Lane.

Those two defeats came after an 11-game winning streak for Manuel Pellegrini’s charges, with City shipping more goals in the two losses (also 1-2 v West Ham) than in those previous 11 victories combined (four goals). The result was also City’s heaviest Premier League defeat since a 0-3 loss to Liverpool back in April 2011.

As for Tottenham, they’ve now won three successive Premier League games for the first time since February. The game also saw England hitman Harry Kane finally end his 12 hour 28 minute goal-drought, with his goal (Spurs’ third of the game), the 150th in the top-tier overall this season.
