This showdown of Champions League contenders ended with spoils shared so Manchester City, in fifth place, still lead Brighton, who are seventh, by a point. The draw, then, is a rosy result for Newcastle, as they are sandwiched between them and have played a game fewer so have an opportunity to leapfrog Pep Guardiola’s men.
Match day 29 for City and Brighton fired the gun on the final 10 matches and with so many teams in the chase for a shot at the European Cup, final-day excitement surely awaits.
