Pep Guardiola on the title race and draw with Forest

“Nine games left to play, for them one less, and now it’s Newcastle.

“Always I thought about that, what’s next?

“In general it was a good performance in many, many good things. Of course we have some things to improve in some departments but in general really good.”

Full-time (2-2)

Forest somehow survive a dramatic ending and hold on for a point.

The very last kick of the game is a clearance of the line. Incredible.

90'+6
Semenyo goes close (2-2)

Semenyo takes a free-kick from a long way out and shoots at goal.

It is well struck but goes just over.

90'+4
Sels booked (2-2)

Sels has been taking his time over every goal kick.

The referee chooses to wait until very late on to book him.

90'+3
More penalty appeals (2-2)

Rodri is down in the area after a late challenge.

The referee waves play on.

90'+1
Yates heads wide (2-2)

A big chance for Forest to steal all three points.

Yates heads wide.

Seven minutes of injury time have been added on.

Gibbs-White and Williams are taken off.

Yates and Morato come on.

88'
Another penalty appeal (2-2)

Haaland goes down under contact in the penalty area.

The referee again waves play on.

85'

Five minutes remain and City are throwing everything at finding a third goal.

Forest are happy to take their time over every set-piece at this point.

82'
Cherki off (2-2)

Cherki is withdrawn for Savinho.

Less than ten minute remain for City to find a winner.

77'
City double change (2-2)

Doku and Khusanov are sent on.

Foden and Ait-Nouri make way.

76'
GOAL 2-2

Forest are level again, a brilliant strike from Anderson!

The Englishman plays one one-two on the edge of the box before placing an effort perfectly in the bottom corner. All square again.

71'
Huge appeals for City penalty (2-1)

Cherki spots the run of Haaland and threads a ball through for him.

The Norwegian gets their first and takes it past Sels, before going down. VAR checks and confirms no penalty.

64'
Hudson-Odoi on (2-1)

Hudson-Odoi is sent on for Dominguez.

Forest are still in this game.

63'
Milenkovic booked (2-1)

Forest care furious after the City goal and complain to the referee.

Milenkovic takes it too far and receives a yellow card.

62'
GOAL 2-1

City regain the lead and it is a goal from a corner that puts them ahead.

Rodri is the man who heads home for the Blues.

60'
Murillo booked (1-1)

Murillo is booked for a foul on Haaland.

City need to respond now after finding themselves level.

56'
GOAL 1-1

Forest get forward for the first time this half and get themselves level!

Aina breaks down the right-hand side before finding Jesus with a deep cross. He touches it back to Gibbs-White who tucks it away. 1-1.

52'
Cherki fires over (1-0)

Cherki is next up to show off his silky feet, taking it round Dominguez in impressive fashion.

The Frenchman then fires over from the edge of the area.

49'
Almost from Silva (1-0)

Brilliant footwork from Silva, who then fires at goal.

It would have been some goal, but it is deflected behind for a corner.

46'
Second half underway (1-0)

Cherki takes the kick-off and we are back underway in the second half.

No changes from either manager so far.

Half-time (1-0)

City go in 1-0 up at half-time, just as Arsenal do at Brighton.

It is far from game over against a Forest side that have shown themselves to be dangerous in moments. Donnarumma has been called into action on more than one occasion, and Guardiola will certainly hope his side increase their advantage after the break.

45'+2
City should have a second (1-0)

The resulting free-kick is played short to Semenyo who drills a fantastic low ball across the face of goal.

Somehow Haaland is unable to get on the end of it and it stays out.
