Trent Alexander-Arnold's late equaliser gave Liverpool a point at Manchester City in the meeting of the Premier League's top two at Etihad Stadium.
In a game that did not touch the heights of previous encounters between the main domestic powers of recent times, reigning champions City led when Erling Haaland was the beneficiary of Liverpool keeper Alisson's poor clearance.
It made him the fastest player to reach 50 Premier League goals - in his 48th match - and gave City an advantage they held until the closing stages.
Ruben Dias thought he had added City's second, only to see his goal ruled out for a foul on Alisson, before Alexander-Arnold made Pep Guardiola's side pay for a failure to kill Liverpool off.
Alexander-Arnold had a tough game defensively trying to contain the lively Jeremy Doku, but demonstrated his quality 10 minutes from time with a crisp, low strike from the edge of the area that gave Ederson no chance.
City remain top of the table but might regard this as an opportunity missed, while Liverpool will be satisfied with a draw.
