MANCHESTER, England -- Manchester Citys winning start to the English Premier League is over -- and the title favorites might just have seen close up their biggest rival for the trophy.Producing a clinic in high-octane pressing, Tottenham hounded City into submission in a 2-0 victory at White Hart Lane that consigned Pep Guardiola to his first loss in 12 games. Six of those matches had come in the Premier League, and had been won at a canter.It was the kind of all-round performance that Spurs produced for large spells of last season under Mauricio Pochettino before collapsing late on in their pursuit of eventual champion Leicester.That was the first time Spurs contended for the league title in a generation and they are proving it wasnt just a one-off.After seven games, second-placed Tottenham is the only unbeaten team in the Premier League, still hasnt conceded a goal in open play and is now just one point behind City.In a dominant first-half display, Tottenham went ahead through Aleksandar Kolarovs own goal in the ninth minute before Dele Alli added a second as Citys defense was overwhelmed by the home teams energy and movement.It could have been worse for City: Erik Lamela had a second-half penalty saved for Spurs in the second half.Citys much-lauded attack failed to score for the first time this season and its defense looked suspect, like it did in the 3-3 draw at Celtic in the Champions League on Wednesday. There are finally some cracks in Citys teams for its title rivals to cling to.Manchester United couldnt take advantage, only drawing 1-1 at home to struggling Stoke, but Arsenal scraped a 1-0 win at Burnley thanks to a scrambled goal with virtually the last touch of the game.---MANCHESTER UNITED 1, STOKE 1After opening with three straight victories, United has won only one of its last four games in the league and is already playing catch-up.Joe Allen earned a point for Stoke, scoring an 82nd-minute equalizer following a rare mistake by David de Gea. The United goalkeeper fumbled a long-range shot, Jon Walters scooped the loose ball against the bar before it bounced down for Allen to smash home from close range.United took the lead in the 69th through Anthony Martials curling strike, two minutes after he came on as a substitute.United is sixth with 13 points, five behind City at the top.Stoke is still waiting for a first win of the season, but has ended its 13-game losing streak at Old Trafford stretching back 36 years.---BURNLEY 0, ARSENAL 1The two minutes of injury time had almost elapsed at Turf Moor when Alexis Sanchez received a short corner and sent over a cross that Theo Walcott flicked on. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain appeared to get a touch to the ball, which reared up off the hand of Laurent Koscielny -- unintentionally -- and squeezed over the line.The match marked 20 years since Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger officially took charge of Arsenal, and a fifth straight league win lifted his team to third place -- two points behind City.---LEICESTER 0, SOUTHAMPTON 0It might all be about the Champions League for Leicester this season.This draw meant Leicester has won just two of the opening seven games of its Premier League title defense. In their first-ever Champions League campaign, the Foxes have won both of their games -- the latest coming against two-time European champion Porto on Tuesday.Southampton created the better chances at King Power stadium, with in-form striker Charlie Austin hitting the post early on and wasting a one-on-one chance in the second half.Grossiste Nike Zoom En France .ca! Hi Kerry, Its another day and here we are looking at another dubious hit to the head. In this case Blue Jackets forward Brandon Dubinsky elbowed Saku Koivu in the head about a second after he dished off the puck to a teammate, knocking him unconscious. Nike Zoom Pas Cher France . Uniteds eighth defeat of a wretched campaign means Liverpool, which currently occupies the fourth and final Champions League place, could go nine points clear of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday. Charlie Adam scored both of Stokes goals at Britannia Stadium either side of Robin van Persies equalizer, with a miserable day for seventh-place United capped by first-half injuries to centre halves Jonny Evans and Phil Jones that forced them off. http://www.paschernikezoom.fr/ . The home side created most of the chances but struggled to break down Braunschweigs resilient defence, resulting in the Bundesligas 1,000th scoreless draw. Nike Zoom Pas Cher . Toronto has dropped games to Indiana and Miami since a five-game winning streak and closed out a three-game road trip at 1-2. Grossiste Nike Zoom . -- Nathan Pancel scored twice as the Sudbury Wolves defeated the North Bay Battalion 4-2 on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action.England wing Jack Nowell says he is keen to step up his fitness levels under new head coach Eddie Jones.Although Jones believes the condition of his squad is adequate for the Six Nations, but must improve for next summers tour of his native Australia.The Exeter player has added 10kg in weight in recent years, but the move from 85kg to 95kg was added muscle bulk and followed knee surgery. I was training like old man, said Nowell, who missed the 2014 tour to New Zealand as a result of the operation.Im a completely different player now. Im bigger now. Anything can happen if get hands on the ball. (And I am) more confident in defence now.Jones vision of an England playing free-flowing rugby and keeping the ball in play may be at odds with his first match - a 15-9 win over Scotland in Edinburgh last Saturday - but suits Nowell, one of two England try-scorers at Murrayfield.And Italy could be the first to feel the impact of Jones tinkering. Nowell and head coach Eddie Jones pose with the Calcutta Cup following their victory against Scotland I like the sound of that because I like to come off my wing and get my hands on the ball as much as possible, Nowell added.I want to get my hands on the ball as much as possiblee and if I am absolutely knackered I wont be able to do that.dddddddddddd.We have worked hard on our breakdown this week and getting that speed of ball.However, Nowell also accepts the pragmatic approach favoured by Jones in Edinburgh last weekend.First things first is to win the game, Nowell said.If you said to me we scored four tries off a driving maul and I touched the ball once and we won the game, Id take that any day of the week. England head coach Eddie Jones keeps an eye on his players A hint of the future was evident in Edinburgh when replacement prop Mako Vunipolas deft handling made space for Nowells try.Makos got a lot of skills, Nowell said. Some of the passes he does in training are pretty ridiculous. It wasnt a surprise. Hes a very skilful player.If we can get all our forwards doing that, thats going to put us backs in very positive positions going forward.The England team announcement will be on Friday at 10am, tune into Sky Sports News HQ for full coverage.Also See:Vunipola, Lawes in contentionGustard: Lots to improve onSix Nations tableRugby union video ' ' '
