<p><a target="_blank" href="https://gistreel.com/tag/nathan-ake" rel="noopener"><strong>Nathan Ake</strong></a>‘s controversial 88th-minute goal secured <a target="_blank" href="https://gistreel.com/tag/manchester-city" rel="noopener"><strong>Manchester City’s</strong></a> first-ever victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.</p>
<p>The goal came under check by VAR, with Tottenham Hotspur claiming a foul by Ruben Dias on their goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario before Ake found the net.</p>
<p>However, the on-field referee and VAR upheld the goal, ending City’s goal drought at the stadium.</p>
<p>The <a target="_blank" href="https://gistreel.com/?s=fa+cup" rel="noopener"><strong>FA Cup</strong></a> match had been largely uneventful until City’s late surge in the last 20 minutes.</p>

<p>Despite early dominance from City and a few missed opportunities, the game lacked the usual thrill seen in clashes between the two Premier League giants.</p>
<p>The tension escalated in the second half as City intensified their attacks, with substitute Kevin De Bruyne bringing in the needed energy for offensive efforts.</p>
<p>A series of near misses and a disallowed goal kept the game on a knife-edge until Ake’s strike finally broke the deadlock for the visitors who now move to the next round of the tournament.</p>
