Manchester City drew 2-2 with Tottenham after leading 2-0, with Rayan Cherki and Antoine Semenyo scoring for City. Dominic Solanke scored twice for Tottenham, including an eight-minute equalizer and a 70th-minute backheel. The first Solanke goal involved contact with Marc Guehi's leg; VAR reviewed the incident and allowed the goal despite an apparent foul. City experienced multiple VAR decisions going against them in January in matches versus Newcastle, Manchester United and Wolves. City reacted with frustration, criticized perceived unfairness and urged referee neutrality, warning that small details decide tight Premier League matches.
