Tottenham Hotspur staged a stunning comeback at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, snatching a dramatic 2-2 draw against Manchester City in the Premier League.
The home side's first half was marked by a spirited effort from Dominic Solanke, who scored his second goal of the season with a resounding scorpion kick. The Tottenham faithful were left stunned as Solanke launched himself into the air, sending the ball flying past Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson to give his team the lead.
Manchester City responded well to fall behind, and their attacking prowess eventually told. Kevin De Bruyne's precise pass found Jack Grealish on the edge of the box, allowing him to fire a shot that beat Hugo Lloris at the near post, giving City a 1-0 halftime advantage.
However, Solanke continued his impressive form with an equalizing goal in the second half. His low-driven shot from outside the box caught Ederson off-guard and gave Tottenham hope of rescuing the match.
The draw was sealed in the 75th minute when Solanke scored again, this time in dramatic fashion after a deflected corner kick found its way into the net. The ball seemed to be destined for the top corner before Solanke pounced on the loose ball and blasted it home with incredible power.
As the final whistle blew, both teams were left to ponder what might have been. For Tottenham, the point will serve as a valuable morale boost after a grueling period of form dips. Meanwhile, Manchester City will be frustrated by a missed opportunity to gain three points against their London rivals.

I was sitting right behind the goal and Solanke's scorpion kick looked like it was going in so easy, but no, they had to cut to the other side of the pitch before we saw the whole thing. And don't even get me started on how long it took them to show the replay 
I swear, those delays are killing my experience. Anyway, love that Solanke's got some serious goalscoring form right now 
You know, I was watching this game with my grandkids and I gotta say, that scorpion kick from Solanke is still giving me goosebumps 
! I mean, what a moment for the young fella! It's amazing to see how he's turned his season around. I feel bad for Manchester City though, they looked so dominant in the first half, but Tottenham showed some real grit and determination in the second half. You can't help but root for the underdog sometimes 
anyway back to the match lolol solanke is straight fire i mean who needs skill when u got that scorpion kick though i swear id be screaming myself hoarse if im at the stadium 
that was insane! 
I mean seriously, who does Solanke think he is? 
and then again with the deflected corner kick, I swear my jaw dropped like 5 times 
. I guess that's what happens when you're a pro, right? 
and for City, yeah they were all over it in the first half but couldn't keep the momentum going 
. Anyways, great game all around! 
anyway, it was an epic match and i'm so glad i got to see it! 
️
but seriously though, how does ederson not see that goal coming? 
Man, that was one wild match 
! Spurs need to sort out their defense tho 
- they were getting torched all over the shop 
️. Solanke's form is on fire 
but he's gotta learn to keep it under wraps 
. That Grealish kid's got game 
! Anyway, that draw's a good 3 points for Spurs in my books 
, but at what cost? You can't just keep pushing the pace all game without getting burned. It's time to take a deep breath and regroup, right back where you started. That's life in a nutshell – we've gotta know when to push forward and when to pull back 
!
. Manchester City is like "what did we just miss out on?!" 
. and as for city, they'll have to regroup and refocus because three points slipping through their fingers like sand in an hourglass 
Lloris should've done better tho 
anyway, it's all about momentum now for Spurs, they gotta keep this form up if they wanna make a push for top 4
