Manchester City were held to a 1-1 draw at Newcastle United on Saturday, dropping points for the second consecutive game in the absence of key midfielder Rodri. Despite taking an early lead through Josko Gvardiol, City couldn't maintain control and conceded a penalty to Anthony Gordon, securing a point for the Magpies.
LONDON - Manchester City failed to shrug off the absence of Rodri in a 1-1 draw at Newcastle as they dropped Premier League points for the second consecutive game on Saturday.
A point edges City two points clear at the top of the table, but they could be overtaken by Liverpool, Aston Villa and Arsenal by the end of the weekend. The Magpies were also missing key personnel with last season's top goalscorer Alexander Isak out injured. Referee Jarred Gillett turned down appeals for a second penalty when Kyle Walker challenged Joelinton before Ederson flew off his line to deny Gordon.
