Manchester City survived a second-half bombardment from Liverpool to hold on for a 1-1 draw in an electrifying encounter at Anfield which leaves Arsenal top of the Premier League.

The final Premier League meeting between Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola lived up to its billing as the injury-hit hosts roared back from John Stones’ clever first-half opener from a corner.

Alexis Mac Allister scored the leveler from the penalty spot early in the second period after Ederson had wiped out Darwin Nunez from Nathan Ake’s poor back pass, injuring himself in the process.

Klopp’s side, with Mohamed Salah, only fit enough to feature as a substitute, had been second best in the first half but dominated the rest of the game, missing a series of chances especially with Colombian winger Luis Diaz.
