Manchester City scores 1-1 goals against Liverpool.
Trent Alexander Arnold denied defending champions Manchester City all 3 points at 80th minute following early goal scored by Erling Haaland.
The Reds came from behind despite City dominating possession and having better chance creations.
This is after sharing the points at the Etihad Stadium, there is barely anything between the sides in the Premier League.
Man City remain top of the table on 29 points, with Liverpool hot on their heels on 28 points.
Their positions may change as Arsenal and Tottenham both have the chance to capitalize from the draw, but Liverpool will take confidence from ending Guardiola’s side 100 per cent record at home this season.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola saw his side drop points at home for the first time this season.
It’s the first time since Everton in December 2022 that an away side has avoided defeat at the Etihad.
“Excellent performance against a top, incredible team – the way we played was excellent,”he added stating that,
“We were good in all departments, in the back, with our build up with the keeper.We know the quality Erling has, it was a really good finish. He had the header as well.”
He further added that it was an excellent performance.
“After many years that we still perform and run that way – there is so much to be proud of.” Guardiola noted.
Liverpool will be pleased with the draw but look like they might be without their first choice goalkeeper for a few weeks.
However,Alisson seems to have sustained injury in the dying minutes.
Sunderland’s record of 24 consecutive home wins remains intact, as City have failed to win today after 23 victories on the bounce at the Etihad.
