Liverpool ramped up their attempts to find an equaliser all to no avail as City held on to secure the narrow lead at the break.
The second half kicked off with Liverpool getting off the mark in the 47th minute. A horror defensive error saw by City Liverpool take off brilliantly with the equaliser.
Ake had threaded a back pass to Ederson but Darwin Nunez was fast to intercept it and drive into the box where he was brought down by Ederson’s challenge. Michael Olivier pointed to the spot and Mac Allister converted it with a cool finish to make it 1-1.
Mac Allister’s equaliser happens to be the last goal of the game. Liverpool were on the ascendancy going forward but could not make their chances count.
It ended squares at the blast of the final whistle with both sides sharing spoils to keep the Premier League title race in the balance.
