SERGIO AGUERO WAS the scourge of Tottenham once again as Manchester City won 1-0 at White Hart Lane on the day they were dethroned as Premier League champions by Chelsea.
City went into Sunday’s game knowing their slim hopes of retaining the title were over after Jose Mourinho’s side beat Crystal Palace earlier in the day, but they advanced their hopes of claiming second spot.
Aguero scored all four goals in City’s 4-1 home win over Tottenham in October and his first-half strike ensured he has now found the back of the net eight times in his last four games against the London club.
The Premier League’s leading scorer this season now has 22 goals in the top flight and 28 in all competitions, but will not be celebrating another title as Chelsea are 13 points clear with three games remaining.

Tottenham had their chances, but were thwarted by an inspired Joe Hart as they failed to build on a bright start and their hopes of securing a Champions League spot are now practically over, while City are three points clear of Arsenal – who play Hull City on Monday.
