Man City vs Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result and reaction as Trent Alexander-Arnold nets late equaliser

Man City 1-1 Liverpool: Jurgen Klopp’s men remain one point behind the champions after salvaging a draw at the Etihad Stadium

Is Liverpool City biggest rivalry? I don't know but it's tough - Klopp

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s low finish ten minutes from time earned Liverpool a point against Manchester City as the Premier League‘s top two played out a 1-1 draw.

A relatively even contest never quite burst into life at the Etihad Stadium as two familiar foes kept each other largey in check.

Erling Haaland had put Manchester City into a first half lead, latching on to a through ball from Nathan Ake after an errant clearance from Alisson before firing into the bottom corner past the Brazilian goalkeeper.

It was the Norwegian’s 50th Premier League goal, the striker achieving the mark in his 48th game to comfortably break Andy Cole’s record.

And Haaland very nearly added a second a matter of moments before Alexander-Arnold equalised up the other end, Alisson’s block crucial and sparking the counter attack from which the right back neatly tucked home.

The draw ends a 23-match winning run at home for Manchester City, who could be overhauled at the top of the table if Arsenal beat Brentford later on Saturday.

Manchester City 1-0 Liverpool, 35 minutes

Side netting! Inaccurate from Manuel Akanji, rushing a transfer out to the right and failing to spot Dominik Szoboszlai lurking in position to intercept. The Hungarian has a lovely range of pass when driving at a defence and neatly finds Darwin Nunez, but the striker is dragged wider than he’d like and can’t contort a finish around Ederson.

“Handball!” cry the home crowd as Darwin Nunez controls a magnificent Trent Alexander-Arnold pass with his chest, with Chris Kavanagh rightly waving play on. The striker has two up with him and finds Mohamed Salah, but Nathan Ake stands up strongly to the Egyptian.

Liverpool’s corner, which Ederson comes to punch, the goalkeeper getting just enough on the ball. Liverpool reload and attack again but a canny nudge in the back of Mohamed Salah allows Manchester City to clear more certainly.

In truth, Liverpool had looked relatively comfortable in their defensive structure before that goal, those errors aside. But now Manchester City have grown in zip, Jeremy Doku’s shimmying hips and frantic feet causing Trent Alexander-Arnold all sorts of issues. A deflected effort hops out of play for a corner.

Manchester City 1-0 Liverpool, 30 minutes

A first league goal against Liverpool for Erling Haaland, and a remarkable 50 in 48 games. Andy Cole was previously the fastest to 50 in the Premier League, and it took him 65 matches.

You just felt like that was always coming. Liverpool had been much too loose when attempting to escape their own end, and you simply cannot afford a team like Manchester City that many easy opportunities.

GOAL! MANCHESTER CITY 1-0 Liverpool (Erling Haaland, 27 minutes)

Premier League goal number 50 for Erling Haaland!

Manchester City lead! It’s another error from Alisson, a hopeless hack of a clearance as he looks to spark a quick break skewing to Nathan Ake. It’s lovely stuff from the defender, dancing between a couple of Liverpool players and slipping in the master marksman, who fires left-footed across the goalkeeper into the bottom corner.

The corner rolls off the top of Dominik Szoboszlai’s head and out for another on the opposite side.

Manchester City attack at speed, Rodri and Jeremy Doku and then Julian Alvarez, but they can’t force an effort on goal. A corner will give them an opportunity to load the box.

Manchester City take it short and Doku is dispossesed. Mohamed Salah runs out of room a bit but is tugged back by Julian Alvarez as he looks to release a pass - no card from referee Chris Kavanagh, which frustrates Jurgen Klopp.

That’s more traditional Haaland play - he surges to the near post after Jeremy Doku’s fast feet get the Belgian to the byline. Haaland draws a corner.

Manchester City 0-0 Liverpool, 21 minutes

Excellent scrambling from Erling Haaland, recognising that Manuel Akanji has been caught upfield and exposed by Liverpool’s intricate ball movement and using his sheer atleticism to get back and prevent a counter.
