Silva sends it through to Aguero, who holds the ball up and sends the ball back across the face of goal. It drops back to Silva, but his right-footed attempt fails to find the target. He should be scoring from there.

HALF TIME

The scores remain level entering the interval, despite City heavily dominating the first half. Aguero had a handful of chances and Silva missed a close range strike for the visitors. 

The Saints have showed glimpses of brilliance going forward, but Tadic missed their best chance of the game from inside of the area. 

The speculation continues surrounding Sane's penalty call, but the referee did not believe there was contact at the time. 

It is all to play for in the second half. Game on!
