Manchester City's latest Premier League match saw them draw 2-2 with top-four rivals Brighton and Hove Albion, as the race for a Champions League place heats up.
Manchester City met Brighton during the latest match week of the Premier League, with the two clubs in desperate need of three points to remain within reach of the top four in this epic battle against six other sides.
Erling Haaland Omar Marmoush were the two names that got Man City their two goals but were unable to secure the all-important victory and ended the afternoon with a point apiece due to the 2-2 draw.
The end of match week 29 sees Man City on fifth place, one point behind Chelsea. Behind them with just one point are the Seagulls on seventh, while Newcastle United are also just one spot behind the Cityzens on sixth, but have played one game less due to their participation in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday, where they beat Liverpool 2-1 to become winners.
Manchester City are also only four points away from the 10th position, highlighting just how crucial this period of time will be for them in their bid for the top four. Currently, we could see any outcome of their premier league race, with all clubs fighting every week to achieve their goal.
However, there will be a few weeks' break in the Premier League as the international break arrives.
Pep Guardiola reaction
"Nine games, nine finals. It looks like it will go down to the last day. Nine games still until the end of the season. We have tough games."
"It was quite similar to Nottingham Forest. Okay, we didn't lose. The goal was not good enough but it will be tight until the end. The performance was much, much, much better than the Nottingham Forest game. We'll take the point."
"Next game Leicester and then United but first Bournemouth in the FA Cup."
