74 Mins GOAL Man City 4-1 Tottenham - Sergio Aguero
The ball is played into the channel and picked up by Sergio Aguero who cuts inside before burying a shot, via a slight deflection off Spurs substitute Jan Vertonghen, across the keeper and into the bottom corner.
69 Mins Substitution Our final change - Vertonghen for Mason.
68 Mins GOAL Man City 3-1 Tottenham - Sergio Aguero
He doesn't miss two in a row, does he? Sergio Aguero strokes the ball home for his third Manchester City hat-trick, on the same day he becomes the club's record scorer in the Premier League.
67 Mins RED CARD Fazio
On his Premier League debut, Federico Fazio is sent for an early bath. The Spaniard sees red for denying Aguero a clear goalscoring opportunity, on balance probably the right decision.
I'll throw this out there, though. Navas's cross got past two defenders before it got to the path of Aguero. If either of those had cut it out, would Fazio still have been shown the door?
61 MINS MISSED PENALTY Man City 2-1 Tottenham
Roberto Soldado steps up... it's saved. Joe Hart guesses right and makes a strong one-handed save down to his right.
60 mins PENALTY FOR TOTTENHAM
Roberto Soldado is brought down by Martin Demichelis. The referee points to the spot, but the foul appears to be just outside the area.
59 mins Substitutions Dembele and Townsend for Capoue and Lamela.
55 Mins Booking Navas for foul on Chadli.
HALF TIME Man City 2-1 Tottenham
36 mins Booking Eric Dier (Tottenham Hotspur) is shown the yellow card for bringing down Gael Clichy on the halfway line.
35 mins Booking Ryan Mason (Tottenham Hotspur) is shown the yellow card for a foul on Fernandinho
31 mins MISSED PENALTY Man City 2-1 Tottenham
Sergio Aguero steps up for his hat-trick and drills the ball down the middle - and straight at Hugo Lloris who saves with his feet. The rebound balloons in the air and the striker goes for an acrobatic effort but hooks it over the bar.
30 mins PENALTY FOR MAN CITY Man City 2-1 Tottenham
Referee Jon Moss points to the spot again. This time when Younes Kaboul wipes out David Silva in the penalty area. Little doubt about that one.
20 mins GOAL Man City 2-1 Tottenham - Sergio Aguero
Spurs will say the penalty was soft, City will say it's a foul anywhere else on the pitch. There's little debate about the end result though - Sergio Aguero steps up and confidently sends Hugo Lloris the wrong way.
19 mins PENALTY FOR MAN CITY Man City 1-1 Tottenham
Frank Lampard drives into the box but is sent tumbling when Erik Lamela bundles into his back. Penalty!
15 mins GOAL Man City 1-1 Tottenham - Christian Eriksen
What a response! Fernando sloppily loses possession as Spurs charge forward. Roberto Soldado sees Christian Eriksen on his shoulder and the Dane thunders in, with the help of Joe Hart and the City crossbar, with an angled drive. That is about 90 seconds between City's opener and Spurs's equaliser according to my stopwatch.
13 mins GOAL Man City 1-0 Tottenham - Sergio Aguero
Manchester City are getting a tune out of their classical genius Sergio Aguero (12:16) today.
After Erik Lamela gives the ball away 30 yards from goal, City spring into action and Frank Lampard plays a simple ball into the feet of Sergio Aguero who takes a second to weigh up the situation, then steps inside and buries a shot into the bottom corner. Pure class.
