Manchester City and Liverpool played out a thrilling 2-2 draw in a game that showcased the excellence of the Premier League.

Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp's teams once again produced a classic encounter as the points were shared at the Etihad.

Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring in the fifth minute, finding the back of the net from range after a kind deflection.

Though the visitors wasted no time in replying as Diogo Jota slotted home from close range after being brilliantly picked out by Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Gabriel Jesus put Man City back in the lead before the break with a tidy finish past Alisson.

The Reds immediately levelled following half-time as Mohamed Salah pierced a sublime pass to Sadio Mane who hit a first-time finish into the back of the net.

Raheem Sterling scored his side's third goal, but his effort was rightfully ruled out for offside following a VAR review.

The Blues remain at the top of the league, with 73 points on the board - one point ahead of Liverpool.

Both teams have seven league games left as the race for the title hots up.
