  1. PENALTY FOR SPURSpublished at 14:06 British Summer Time 18 October 2014

    Roberto Soldado is brought down by Martin Demichelis. The referee points to the spot, but the foul appears to be just outside the area.

  2. CLOSE!published at 14:05 British Summer Time 18 October 2014

    Surely a hat-trick for Sergio Aguero... no! David Silva beats the offside trap and slides the ball across the face of goal. Aguero, sliding in, can't get the connection to help it over the line.

    Hold on to your hats, Cardiff fans - you have a nervy final few minutes now. Forest's £5.5m striker Britt Assombalonga - the Championship's top scorer - slams in his ninth of the season. Four minutes of stoppage time....

  4. CLOSE!published at 14:03 British Summer Time 18 October 2014

    The game is really open now - a Spurs attack breaking down and Manchester City pouring forward, the move ending with Jesus Navas firing in a low shot which is turned around his near post by Hugo Lloris.

    Professor Ndebele:, external Fernando's a complete waste of money.

    Yullaw:, external Chadli, what a waste of money!

    Anyone else out on the field not worth their fee?

    Nacer Chadli has a dig from 30 yards out: chesting the ball down and hitting the bag of air on the volley, but it's too wide to trouble Joe Hart.

    "The Manchester City fans are getting very frustrated because a lot of the City players have been giving the ball away and I wonder whether they can play to their full ability after coming back from the international break. This second half has not been very impressive so far in terms of quality."

    Manchester City are pinning Tottenham back into their own half. However, perhaps learning their lesson from the first half, they are quickly back into position when the visitors break. Yaya's warming up for the hosts...

    "Sergio Aguero really has the beating of these two Tottenham centre-backs. Federico Fazio has done OK, but Younes Kaboul has really struggled to contain Aguero today. Hugo Lloris did brilliantly well to stop his latest shot on target."

    NUFC can confirm that there is currently a short delay in opening the turnstiles whilst an issue with the new screen is being addressed.

    Wonder if the Newcastle techies have tried turning the screen off and back on again. Always works...

  11. GREAT SAVE!published at 13:54 British Summer Time 18 October 2014

    Sergio Aguero is playing out of his skin today - picking up the ball just outside the box and hammering a low, swerving shot which Hugo Lloris does brilliantly to parry clear.

    Andy Knowles:, external Cracking game. Could easily be 6-3 to Man City.

    Michael Sword:, external Spurs fans complain about Soldado but fail to see his assist or the fact that he's playing up front on his own.

    Adam Geoffrey Bull:, external Early kick-offs are generally dull. This one isn't.

    Man City 2-1 Tottenham

    But which one of those goals will be remembered the most, I wonder?

  16. Postpublished at 13:42 British Summer Time 18 October 2014

    BBC Sport's Chris Bevan at Etihad Stadium

    "It's been a wide open and thoroughly entertaining first 45 minutes at Etihad Stadium, more than enough to brighten a dank autumn day in Manchester.

    "City will feel they should have some breathing space rather than just a one-goal lead but, mainly thanks to the impressive Christian Eriksen, Tottenham have posed a constant threat at the other end too.

    "Both teams deserved the ovation they got as they went off at the break, and let's hope for more of the same in the second half."

    Richard W:, external Lloris and Eriksen aside, Spurs look like a deer in headlights... and Kaboul looks like he's already been run-over!

    Amour Abdallah:, external Why is Christian Eriksen playing for Spurs anyway? He's way better than a mid-table team player. He must have a worst agent.

    Allan Mugane:, external Is Soldado playing?

    "Southampton need to prove the defeat at Tottenham was a blip and that their early season form is not just a flash in the pan. Sunderland, meanwhile, have drawn too many but would gladly take a point from St Mary's.

    "Just six Sunderland players won caps during the international break, only three of whom played twice. In contrast, more than a dozen Southampton stars have been away.

    "Southampton have the meanest defence in the English leagues. At the other end, there's been no better shot stopper than Sunderland's Vito Mannone this season. A score draw would not be a surprise."

    MOTD's Steve Bower at St James' Park

    "There seems to be a spotlight on every Newcastle match at the moment. You sense there will be before they win.

    "As each week goes by, the pressure builds and the statistics become even more worrying - one win in their last 15 league matches, just seven points in that time from a possible 45 and only five league wins in this calendar year.

    "Leicester boss Nigel Pearson knows all about Newcastle, having been assistant to Glenn Roeder and Sam Allardyce and caretaker boss when both left. He'll also be aware his side can take advantage of the current climate.

    "If he's the latest manager to deny them victory, then Tyneside frustrations could reach breaking point."
