Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur played out an entertaining draw on Saturday night.

Raheem Sterling opened the scoring with a well-taken header before Erik Lamela equalised with the visitors' first shot on target.

Sergio Aguero gave the champions the lead once again with a neat finish from another superb Kevin De Bruyne cross.

But substitute Lucas Moura scored with his first touch, a powerful header from a corner, to earn Spurs a share of the spoils as Gabriel Jesus' late would-be winner was ruled out by VAR.
