What a Performance! James Maddison Matches Freddie Ljungberg's Feat Against Manchester City
Football news
Manchester City host Tottenham in the 12th round of the Premier League, and the first half turned into a nightmare for Pep Guardiola’s side. The hosts went into halftime trailing 2-0, with both goals coming unanswered.
The standout performer for Spurs was James Maddison, who netted twice against Ederson in the opening 20 minutes.
Details: Maddison became only the second player to score twice against Manchester City within the first 20 minutes of a Premier League away match.
The only other player to achieve this feat was Arsenal legend Freddie Ljungberg, who did so in April 2001.
Recall: the Citizens approached the match against Spurs with an extremely unpleasant series of four consecutive defeats in all tournaments.
