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.

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.
