Sergio Aguero missed a first-half penalty and Harry Kane was forced off injured before Son s strike settled the first European match at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday.
City had won all of the past three meetings with Spurs but, without Bernardo Silva or Kevin De Bruyne in the starting line-up, they seemed to lack a lot of the spark that has kept them on course for an unprecedented quadruple this season.
Mauricio Pochettino s side were thwarted by Ederson for much of the match, but the Brazil goalkeeper allowed Son s strike to slide beneath him and leave City trailing ahead of the return leg.
