Liverpool 1-1 Man City: Mac Allister cancels out Stones' goal, Doku hits post

The Premier League title race is still well and truly alive as honours were shared at Anfield after Liverpool came back to hold Manchester City to a draw on Sunday afternoon.

Match Report

After Luis Diaz had an early goal ruled out for offside, John Stones put the visitors ahead in the first-half, clipping in an inswinging corner from Kevin De Bruyne at the near post.

In the second-half, Ederson would bring down Darwin Nunez inside the penalty area in what was a rash challenge on the Uruguayan forward, with the Brazilian injuring himself in the process.

Referee Michael Oliver subsequently awarded a penalty for the foul, with Alexis Mac Allister stepping up to bury the ball into the bottom-left corner of the goal.

The draw means Liverpool have dropped down to second in the table with City going third after Arsenal claimed a dramatic late victory against Brentford earlier on Sunday.
