Southampton vs Man City LIVE!
Premier League leaders Manchester City were denied a 13th league victory in a row after being held to a 1-1 draw by battling Southampton.
Aymeric Laporte headed a 65th-minute equaliser for Pep Guardiola’s men following a surprise early opener from Saints defender Kyle Walker-Peters.
Kevin De Bruyne struck the post and Gabriel Jesus had a header saved as City piled on the pressure late on and the Southampton defence were pinned back inside their own box.
But there was to be no winner, and it’s the first time they haven’t come out on top in the Premier League since a shock 2-0 loss at home to Crystal Palace way back in late October.
The result leaves the reigning champions 12 points clear of second-placed Liverpool, albeit having played two games more, ahead of a 17-day break from top-flight action.
