The result means the title race remains wide open -- Pep Guardiola's City remain one point ahead of Juergen Klopp's Liverpool -- and few would bet against it going to the wire with each side having seven games left to play.
City's Belgian Kevin De Bruyne, the most complete midfielder in the world, showed his power, strength and finishing ability to put the home side ahead in the fifth minute and after the break visiting forward Mohamed Salah's sublime pass and Sadio Mane's deadly finish ensured the points were shared. The visitors stuck at their task though, never over-committing or over-chasing the game but always looking to make the most of any space they found in between City's lines.
It is that fusion of long-established English 'blood and thunder', high-speed, attacking football with the more recently introduced tactical nous of foreign coaches and the top technique of international players that is at the heart of why fans around the world love the Premier League "No team was going to dominate for long spells as there is so much quality on both sides. Liverpool showed their character in the second half. But then City had great chances as well. A great reminder to us all of what this game is about."The Etihad Stadium may not be the most famed for its atmosphere but it was rocking for most of the 90 minutes with both sets of supporters playing their part in a game which both sides knew could have turned in a moment.
Not even a reminder of the final minute chance missed by Riyad Mahrez, with an attempted chip, could sour his mood.
