An entertaining clash at the Stadium of Light saw both sides enjoy threatening spells and chances throughout the game and Bernardo Silva had an early goal disallowed for offside in the opening stages before Brian Brobbey and Erling Haaland had first-half efforts saved.

Trai Hume glanced a header over before the break and Savinho and Eliezer Mayenda both went close in the second-half before substitute Josko Gvardiol hit the post with 16 minutes of normal time to go.

A draw means City sit four points away from league leaders Arsenal in the table and the Black Cats remain seventh.

Sunderland made one change from their draw with Leeds as Mayenda lined up and Savinho and Nathan Ake both started for Pep Guardiola's side.
