FINAL SCORE: CITY 2 ALBION 2

Great game and a deserved point for Albion, who twice came from behind to extend our unbeaten run to seven - six wins and this draw. Albion will feel they had the better clear-cut chances to win it but a point at the Etihad is not to be sniffed at. Check back on the website soon for reaction.

82'

BALEBA BLAZES OVER, HE SHOULD SCORE!

That was the chance. Joao gets down the flank and then sends a low cross into the box. Baleba meets it 13 yards out and you think for all the world he's going to score, but he smashes it over. Nobody can quite believe he's missed by that much.
79'

NICO HITS THE POST, HINSHELWOOD FIRES INTO THE SIDE NETTING

Nico nods onto Verbruggen's left post and then Albion counter. Mitoma gets down the left before Pedro sends it down the other side to Minteh. He plays a couple of passes with Hinshelwood before the academy graduate looks to sneak a shot in at Ortega's near post, but sends it into the side netting.
78'

DOKU'S CROSS CUT OUT

Doku gets down the left of the Albion box, away from Baleba and pulls it back from the by-line, but van Hecke cuts it out.

Double Albion change. Yasin Ayari and Danny Welbeck replace Diego Gomez and Georginio.
64'

MITOMA VOLLEYS STRAIGHT AT ORTEGA

Minteh crosses in from the right and Mitoma meets it from a tight angle at the back stick, he connects with it well but it's straight at Ortega who puts it behind for a corner.
62'

VERBRUGGEN WITH A HUGE SAVE, MARMOUSH OFFSIDE

Marmoush appears to have a tap in as he takes the ball round Verbruggen, but the Dutchman dives in the way of Egyptian's shot! The flag then goes up against the City striker.
61'
RoundArrow

Yellow Card

Doku goes into the book for diving. To be fair, it looks more like the winger is trying to get out the way of JP sliding in.
59'

GOMEZ DRAGS IT WIDE

There's a lovely interchange on the right between Georginio and Hinshelwood before the Frenchman passes to Gomez on the edge of the box. Diego tries to curl it past Ortega with the outside of his boot, but sends it well wide to the left of goal.

HUGE CHANCE FOR MINTEH

Gomez gets down the left of the box and slides the ball along the edge of the six-yard box. It misses Gvardiol and Diaz, Minteh is seemingly gifted a tap in, but it goes through his legs and behind for a goal kick!

Half-Time

City lead 2-1 at the break. A really busy first half to digest there. Lots of yellow cards. A ruled out goal for Kaoru Mitoma. Plus three goals that actually stood.

HUGE CHANCE FOR JOAO

There's a complete breakdown in communication between the City centre halves and Joao Pedro takes advantage to steal possession. Dias manages to put the Brazilian under pressure as he manages to get away and try to find the bottom right corner, but it' just wide of the post.
39'
RoundArrow

Goal

A brilliant strike from Marmoush as he leathers it into the bottom left corner from 20 yards.
35'

BRILLIANT RUN, POOR FINISH

Minteh shapes to cross but instead gets away from Gundogan and Doku before opening up his body to shoot, but gets it wrong and sends his effort over.
29'

HAALAND SKIES IT

Gundogan has space down the left and he uses the time to pick out Haaland on the edge of the box, but the Norwiegian's strike nearly lands in the second tier behind the goal.
26'

Yellow Card

Carlos Baleba pulls back at the shirt of Doku on the City left and the winger goes to ground.

VERBRUGGEN DENIES SAVINHO

Savinho manages to get away from Estupinan and get a shot away from the right of the Albion box, but Verbruggen gets his foot on it to keep it out. It falls back into a dangerous area, but Albion get it away.

VAR

Not entirely sure what's wrong there. Jack Hinshelwood's ball in from the right is excellent and Mitoma meets it at the back stick. Ortega initially saves it, but the ball hits Mitoma and it crosses the line. The referee appears to give handball against Albion, and VAR back up the decision.

JOAO PEDRO FIRES WIDE

Mitoma crosses in from the left and Joao Pedro tries to meet it in the middle, but he's under big pressure from Khusanov and sends it wide.
