Goals from Rayan Cherki and Antoine Semenyo had us two-up at the break although it could and probably should have been more after a dominant opening 45 minutes.
Cherki blasted home with a right-foot effort early doors before Erling Haaland and then Cherki again went close to doubling our advantage at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
January recruit Semenyo did give us the second we thoroughly deserved just before the break finishing a clinical move involving Rodri and skipper Bernardo Silva.
MATCH REPORT | TOTTENHAM 2-2 CITY
The hosts came back out fired up and Dominic Solanke pulled one back although it could quite easily have been a foul on Marc Guéhi with the City defender having his foot clipped as the Tottenham forward swept home.
Solanke then produced an improvised finish to draw Tottenham level with both teams having chances to win it as the game edged towards 90 minutes.
Italian stopper Gianluigi Donnarumma had to be at his best to tip over a Xavi Simons curled effort, substitute Tijjani Reijnders saw two headers flash just wide while Guéhi, Haaland and Rodri all tried to force the ball home in a late scramble in the box.
Haaland also had a penalty claim waved away before the whistle blew.
