FULL TIME. Two defensive errors prevent Liverpool from getting a win at home to champions Manchester City. They deserved all three points.
90+5'
Allen - who deserves three points today - tries his luck from range but sees his effort float over the bar. That should be that.
90+4'
Late, late into the game now and when the ball bounces out to Tevez from a corner his bobbling effort dribbles wide.
90+2'
Johnson spots a gap 20 yards from goal but his low effort is easily claimed by Hart. Both sides are looking for the winner.
90'
We will have four, dramatic, minutes of added time.
88'

Liverpool mount pressure again and Shelvey sees a decent effort deflected behind by the head of Kolo Toure. The ball comes in, is cleared, but then Liverpool cross again and Carroll has a header cleared off the line by Jack Rodwell!

City go close! Kolarov finds space on the left and his low cross is hit first time, and over the bar, by Dzeko on the run.
85'
Stat from Infostrada: "Carlos Tevez scores his fifth PL goal against Liverpool, he has only netted more PL goals against Bolton, Chelsea and Wigan (all six)."

Liverpool want the win and here comes Andy Carroll as a replacement for Borini. He gets a great reception.

Gerrard rolls the ball off to Jonjo Shelvey and the young midfielder rifles a shot just over the bar. A fine effort from 20 yards.
81'
You have to feel sorry for Liverpool but they have shot themselves in the foot.

GOAL! Liverpool 2-2 Manchester City! Oh no, calamity from Skrtel. He checks back on the left and tries to find Reina with a pass back, only for the ball to roll straight into the path of Tevez. He shows good composure to round Reina and convert, but what a horrible mistake.
79'
Lovely stuff from Skrtel as he makes a fantastic clearance in the centre of his own box. The defender has had a superb day.
78'
Dzeko's first touch is neat as he spins away from his man in the box but on the turn he fires the ball high over the bar. A poor shot, ultimately.

A change for City, long overdue, as David Silva comes on for James Milner.
74'
Well, replays show that was a pretty blatant penalty.

Glen Johnson drives into the box and Kolarov is guilty of a clumsy challenge as he fells the Liverpool defender from behind. The referee is unmoved though, despite the protests from the home supporters and players.
71'
Stat from Infostrada: "Luis Suarez scores from a direct free kick. He is the first Liverpool player in the PL to score from a direct free kick in the PL since Craig Bellamy in December 2011 against Newcastle. It is Suarez's first free kick goal in the PL. He netted five in the Dutch Eredivisie, all for Ajax."
