Burnley hold City 1-1

Manchester City's Sergio Aguero takes a shot on the Burnley goal in the clubs' Premier League match on Saturday at Turf Moor.

BURNLEY: A late goal by Johann Berg Gudmundsson earned Burnley a 1-1 draw with Manchester City in their Premier League match on Saturday at Turf Moor.

City took the lead from a cleverly worked short corner when Danilo curling a 25-yard shot past Nick Pope on 22 minutes.

Burnley almost levelled when Ben Mee headed wide in the first half and on 69 minutes Ederson spectacularly tipped Aaron Lennon’s drive on to the bar.

City might have been out of sight had Raheem Sterling not shot wide from two yards out, but Burnley took full advantage with eight minutes left, Gudmundsson meeting Matt Lowton’s cross.

After dropping points for the second time in two matches, Man City are still 16 points clear at the top. Manchester United, who are at home to Huddersfield later on Saturday, could close the gap a bit. Burnley lie seventh with 36 points.
