Ghana international Antoine Semenyo continued his impressive performance for Manchester City with his second Premier League goal since joining the Eithad Stadium outfit this transfer window.
Semenyo netted his 12th league goal in the ongoing season’s campaign with a fine strike against Tottenham Hotspurs on Sunday evening.
Tottenham came from two goals down to earn a point and deliver a serious setback to Manchester City's Premier League title hopes.
City were in total control at half-time as goals from Rayan Cherki and Antoine Semenyo emphasised their domination, with Thomas Frank's team enduring another hostile reaction from their own fans.
Solanke gave Spurs hope by pulling one back before he showed superb presence of mind to divert Conor Gallagher's cross, which was behind him, over City keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
It capped a comeback which seemed unthinkable at half-time, with City outclassing Spurs with embarrassing ease.
City had already threatened before Cherki put them ahead, the Spurs defence allowing him to advance unchecked to send a low shot beyond the reach of keeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Cherki almost added a second after a superb run and cross-shot that was diverted wide by a vital touch from Vicario.
City's second seemed inevitable, eventually arriving moments before half-time when Spurs defender Radu Dragusin's poor clearance was collected by Rodri. He found Bernardo Silva, who slipped in Semenyo for a cool finish.
Spurs, as so often in recent times, were jeered off at half-time but finally roused themselves after the break to at least put City under pressure.
The previously unemployed Donnarumma saved superbly from Destiny Udogie before Spurs offered some hope when Solanke bundled home, although City were furious, believing he had fouled Marc Guehi.
Solanke then produced a moment to live long in the memory as Spurs drew level, delivering a so-called "scorpion kick" to turn Gallagher's cross beyond Donnarumma's reach.
The result left City six points behind leaders Arsenal, while Spurs, who have suffered so much misery at home this season, deserve huge credit for such a show of spirit when all seemed lost.
Semenyo has notched up 12 goals and provided three assists in 23 Premier League matches in the ongoing season’s campaign.
