James Maddison netted twice for the visitors
Maddison celebrated his 28th birthday with a double before Pedro Porro and Brennan Johnson also got on the scoresheet as City’s recent woes followed them back to the Etihad Stadium.
The home side could really have done with the influential Spain midfielder, who is out for the season, in the team providing the spark rather than standing at the centre of a specially-arranged firework display. Yves Bissouma was booked inside the first minute after being caught out by the lively Phil Foden, whose pass then released Josko Gvardiol to tee up Erling Haaland.
Foden almost responded immediately when he lifted a shot over but it took a brilliant save from Ederson to prevent Son Heung-min doubling Spurs’ lead with a curling effort. Savinho twice squandered good openings as City tried to rally before the interval, one after a particularly poor back header by Porro.
Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish came off the bench to enliven the attack and Ilkay Gundogan shot at Vicario, who also denied Haaland.
