Manchester City dropped valuable points in the Premier League title race with a draw at the hands of Everton on Monday night. City were forced to settle for a point in a 3-3 stalemate with the Toffees, a result which has seen them lose ground on Arsenal in the title race.
Jeremy Doku had given City the lead in the first half, before a Thierno Barry brace and a goal from Jake O’Brien gave Everton a 3-1 lead heading into the closing minutes at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
City then responded with a goal from Erling Haaland and a long-range strike from Doku, but it was not enough to claim the victory.
