The news
The excellent Gareth Bale struck the foot of the post with a rasping drive as a misfiring City were overwhelmed.
City did improve after the break and Shaun Wright-Phillips was denied by a last-ditch tackle, but Hart twice kept out efforts from Roman Pavlyuchenko.
And for all City's spending in the close-season, more than £100m on five new signings, it was Hart - brought back to the club after a season-long loan with Birmingham - who was their most valuable asset.
His magnificent interventions in the first half prevented the home side racking up a score that would have left City's embarrassment of riches simply embarrassed in the opening game of the new Premier League season.

1. Unlucky Spurs! Fantastic attacking football though; it's going to be one exciting season for this team. Mancini put so much $ in offense and all he gets is 2 shots on target lol wow.
2. exactly what i expected from both sides. They are equally dangerous and both looking to compete for the championship. Can't wait to see how the rest of the season goes for them. Great game to hart, glad to see him work his way up, and prove himself.
3. great performance from spurs... but excellent performance from hart (good to shut the critics about the disastrous world cup fumble). Bale looked great nice touches and king very dominant. Dont count city out yet they are just trying different thing, but once the find the right formation and starting line up theyll be good!

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart produced an outstanding display to deny Tottenham victory at White Hart Lane.
Hart saved acrobatically from Jermain Defoe, Tom Huddlestone and Benoit Assou-Ekotto as Spurs started strongly. The excellent Gareth Bale struck the foot of the post with a rasping drive as a misfiring City were overwhelmed.
