Manchester City Fall 2-0 behind after Ait-Nouri drops from Tottenham Clash in the first half-time Nightmare

Manchester City suffered an injury setback in his second game in the new first League season while Rayan Ait-Nouri was drinking in the first half against Tottenham, who then took a 2-0 lead via Brennan Johnson and Joao Palhinha.

Ait-Nouri was signed with Wolves before the club World Cup for reported costs of 31.8 million pounds sterling with 5.2 million pounds sterling in potential premiums.

He made his premier League debut during the categorical victory of the city 4-0 to his former Wolves club Wolves last Saturday.

But the Algerian international could now envisage a sort of the touches after being forced in the 23rd minute of his home debut at the Etihad stadium.

Ait-Nouri initially received treatment after falling on the lawn in the 15th minute. He tried to continue but was then replaced and replaced by Nathan Ake, who was linked to the distance from the club.

In the absence of Ait-Nouri, Tottenham sculpted the defense of the city for the opening goal. Mohammed Kudus pushed a long balloon forward in Richarlison path on the right flank, and the Brazilian low cross was categorically sent by Johnson.

Things worsened for City in the first half stoppage when Nico Gonzalez played a poor ball to goalkeeper James Trafford, whose pass was intercepted while Pope Sarr diverted the ball in Richarlison path. Trafford tried to recover his error, but the ball finally fell in Palhinha, whose near effort was diverted to the house.

After an opening match in which City looked like contenders for the title, the first half of their first home game of the new season displayed their vulnerabilities, the injury of Ait-Nouri presenting Pep Guardiola with an important headache at the back.
