Peter Crouch scored the winning goal for Tottenham in this fixture last season - and found the net again on Tuesday night.
But this time it was his own as he clumsily diverted a low cross from James Milner past the helpless Carlo Cudicini on the half-hour mark.
City kept a clean sheet to ensure they are untouchable in fourth spot, lifting their spirits ahead of Saturday's FA Cup final against Stoke.
Putting together our "Magpies In Europe" book brought back so many amazing memories of our times on foreign soil - Milan, Barcelona, Kiev, Lisbon, Rome, Turin, Eindhoven, etc.
With Jose Enrique expected to quit in the summer because he says he wants to play in Europe, our quest for next season has to be to get back amongst Europe's elite.
Will we do it? You tell me.

Sports Journalist Richie Everson: "At last a book that the fabulous Newcastle United fans can relate to. It's informative, all the facts and figures are there, plus the 120 match reports from all the fixtures ... but it is the articles by the supporters that amazed me.
"I went to many of those games, and this is the only book I can honestly say 'hits the nail on the head'!
"Yes we know the results and the scorers, but some of the facts in this book had me so wrapped up in it I couldn't put it down.
"Was Benny Arentoft cup-tied when he played in the final? Big Wyn and his battle with John McGrath; McFaul scoring a penalty when the crowd had gone home; the trouble in Palermo; it is all amazing stuff.
"I would honestly give this book 10 out of 10."
