Jamie Carragher and Graeme Souness slam Rodri for crucial mistake as Man City beaten by Tottenham

Jamie Carragher believes Rodri let Rico Lewis down with the pass that led to the pivotal goal as Man City were beaten 1-0 by Tottenham.

City continued their wretched run at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, Harry Kane firing home the only goal of the game to condemn the Blues to a fifth straight defeat at the ground without scoring a single goal. The 29-year-old became the North London club's all-time top goalscorer on 267 goals, taking advantage of a mistake by Rodri to slot past a stunned Ederson.

Pierre Emile-Hojbjerg sensed an opportunity as City tried to play out from the back, and when Rodri under-hit a pass to Lewis who was facing his own goal, the Spurs midfielder pounced before laying on Kane to notch his 200th Premier League goal. And after the final whistle, former Liverpool defender Carragher has sympathy for the 18-year-old.
