From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Manchester City travel to Wembley looking to arrest their recent run of poor results after three consecutive defeats.

They take on a Tottenham side that have lost just once in their last 22 games.

Spurs will be without the injured Danny Rose while Sergio Aguero and John Stones are both unavailable for City.

51' - Spurs have started this second half brightly and now it's City who look a little ropy.

They couldn't throw a two-goal lead away for the second Premier League game in succession, could they?

56' - City have been really sloppy in possession since the break. Spurs are yet to punish them but Pep Guardiola can't be pleased with what he's seeing from his side.

62' - We're still yet to have any clear-cut chances at the start of this second half. City have stemmed the tide a little after Tottenham's quick start but they're by no means out of danger yet.

Pep Guardiola is preparing to make his first substitution of the match, with Nicolas Otamendi stripped and ready to come on.

64' - What a miss!

Ilkay Gundogan threads Gabriel Jesus in on goal but, with just Hugo Lloris to beat, the Brazilian fluffs his lines as he scuffs his left-footed finish wide of the Spurs stopper's far post.
