Alexis Mac Allister scored a second-half leveller from the penalty spot as Liverpool and title rivals Manchester City played out an absorbing draw at Anfield.

Mac Allister buried his penalty in the 50th minute after City keeper Ederson had fouled Reds' Darwin Nunez.

John Stones had given Manchester City the lead in the 23rd minute when he swept in Kevin de Bruyne's corner.

City's Phil Foden struck the bar and Jeremy Doku hit the post late on.

The draw meant Arsenal stayed top of the Premier League, level on points with second-placed Liverpool, with City a point behind in third.
