Manchester City 1-1 Everton: Player Ratings

Everton made life for Manchester City hard as they visited the Etihad Stadium, taking home a share of the spoils after an impressive defensive display.

The Toffees soaked up much of City’s pressure, although had a scare in the first half when Phil Jagielka conceded a penalty. Kevin De Bruyne stepped up but his effort was saved by Maarten Stekelenburg.

City continued to press but it was the Merseysiders who took the lead through Romelu Lukaku, finding himself free on the left wing leaving several defenders behind him and slotting accurately past Claudio Bravo.

Everton looked to solidify their dominant position by staying solid at the back but it was Jagielka again who conceded yet another penalty. Sergio Aguero stepped up and his effort was saved by the outstanding Stekelenburg.

It wasn’t long until the Citizens broke through, Nolito netting a header through poor marking in the box.

Kevin De Bruyne had an effort late on but once again Stekelenburg matched it and tipped the shot onto the post.

Anyway, enough of that, here are our player ratings!
