Tottenham got reduced to 10 man late on when defender Cristian Romero, was shown a second yellow, but the underwhelming City side couldn’t get anything out of the game.

The result means Arsenal are still five points at ahead of Pep Guardiola’s side, despite losing to Everton on Saturday, while Spurs are in fifth place, a point behind fourth place Newcastle.
