Manchester City vs Liverpool

1. 90'

   <b>Indeed it is - a cracker of a game ends all square thanks to an extraordinary Aguero equaliser. Not the result that City wanted, and they are nine points behind United at the top of the table after a tremendous afternoon at the Etihad.</b>

2. 90'

   In it comes - City clear, and that must surely be that.

3. 90'

   Lescott prevents Suarez from getting a shot in from an angle - but only at the expense of what will surely be the game's last corner.

4. 90'

   City head clear, but Liverpool keep possession. There is less than a minute left as Agger, of all people, crosses. There's nobody up there to attack it, though.

5. 90'

   Free-kick to Liverpool, midway inside the City half. Gerrard officiating here.

6. 90'

   The corner is too long and over everyone - Mancini looks infuriated. Two minutes of a thriller left.

7. 90'

   Aguero and Maicon link, and only a late block prevents the ball reaching Dzeko. Another City corner.

8. 90'

   A bit of head tennis in midfield and the ball comes down with Garcia and City. Out it goes to Maicon on the right...

9. 90'

   <img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Off goes the outstanding Sturridge, and on comes Joe Allen, in a late Liverpool change.

10. 90'

    Skrtel gets a foot in as Aguero threatens to weave off on another run. Excellent challenge by the Liverpool man.

11. 90'

    City head clear, and there will be five minutes of added time.

12. 90'

    He fires in a shot and Hart saves. The rebound is cleared for a Liverpool corner.

13. 89'

    Now Johnson, as Liverpool attack. He is fouled, and that will be a free-kick. Forward comes Downing on the right and he feeds Sturridge on the edge of the box.

14. 89'

    Reina punches and, when the ball comes back in, claims confidently.

15. 89'

    Kolarov takes, Gerrard clears. Another corner...

16. 88'

    Another fine run by Aguero takes him into the Liverpool area and the ball is stabbed behind for a corner.

17. 87'

    <img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Before they can take it, Nasri comes on for Barry, who has had an industrious game.

18. 87'

    Patient from City, as Barry finds Maicon coming forward on the right. It's a throw to City, deep inside the Liverpool half.

19. 87'

    The delivery is dangerous and Maicon attacks it, but he is only able to steer his header over.

20. 86'

    Barry and Milner link down the City left. The latter crosses, not very well, but it's deflected behind for a corner.

21. 85'

    Johnson has a go, but that's up, away and into the fans behind the goal.

22. 84'

    Liverpool have a throw on halfway. It goes forward and they win another, this one about level with the edge of the City area and on the left.

23. 83'

    A breathless finish in prospect here - can City find a late winner to close the gap to seven points? Or can Liverpool regain the lead?

24. 82'

    ...it's blocked and falls to Gerrard, who thumps in another shot. This time, though, City get bodies in the way.

25. 81'

    Suarez can get away on the right of the area and can square the ball here...
