Erling Haaland, with his hair down, shouting expletives in the general direction of the pitch before he heads down the tunnel.

Pep Guardiola shares a handshake with referee Simon Hooper but nothing more, certainly none of the boos and jeers the ref gets from the Etihad crowd.

It will be interesting to hear the explanation for that decision to stop the City breakaway with just moments left in stoppage time.

Pragmatism pays off for Spurs

Ange Postecoglou gets a point by finally being pragmatic!

But Pep Guardiola needs to liven Manchester City up if they are going to retain the title yet again.

FT: Manchester City 3-3 Tottenham

The whistle blows for full time and that's it!

An incredible match ends in a draw and boos ring out around the Etihad.

Haaland and Guardiola are both furious, yelling at opponents, referees, anyone who they can.

City appeal for penalty

90+7' Manchester City 3-3 Tottenham

Akanji goes to ground in the box under contact from Skipp and the City players appeal for a penalty!

VAR takes a quick look but the replays show that Akanji fell down far too easily.

Referee stops City breakaway!

90+4' Manchester City 3-3 Tottenham

Haaland is fouled in midfield and the referee whistles to stop play, but Grealish was breaking free on goal! The City players are incandescent, furious that the advantage wasn't played. They've surrounded the referee to protest but there's no taking back that whistle.

The reality is that Grealish may have been offside anyway...

Kulusevski's equalising goal

90+1' Manchester City 3-3 Tottenham

A fantastic header from Kulusevski goes in off the underside of the bar as he leaps in front of his defender.

We're into five minutes of stoppage time.

GOAL! Spurs equalise again!

90' Manchester City 3-3 Tottenham

Would you believe it?! Kulusevski has levelled the match for Spurs!

Richarlison comes on with Spurs needing a goal

87' Manchester City 3-2 Tottenham

Mateo Kovacic and Nathan Ake replace Josko Gvardiol and Julian Alvarez for City's last sub opportunity.

Richarlison comes on for a late cameo in place of Yves Bissouma.

Postecoglou sends out a message by subbing Bissouma, who was at fault for Grealish's goal.

More late drama on the cards?

86' Manchester City 3-2 Tottenham

Spurs' games this season have seen nine goals scored after the 90th minute this season, more than any other Premier League side.

Bissouma at fault for Grealish goal

83' Manchester City 3-2 Tottenham

Spurs cost themselves as Bissouma tries to run the ball out from defence but turns it over in a dangerous position.

Schoolboy football, complete naivete.

GOAL! City back in front!

81' Manchester City 3-2 Tottenham

Grealish finishes off a counter-attack, taking an assist from Haaland to score his first goal in his past 27 appearances!

City struggling to maintain leads

80' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

City are in danger of having a third straight Premier League match in which they take the lead but settle for a draw. That would be their longest streak of league matches in which they took a lead but failed to win since 2009.

Second change for Spurs

79' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

Oliver Skipp replaces the goalscorer Giovani Lo Celso.

Rodri hits the bar!

75' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

Rodri hits the top of the crossbar! Lewis was breaking down the right wing before crossing for the midfielder, but with the ball behind him, Rodri couldn't direct his effort on target well enough from close range.

Porro booked

75' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

Porro is booked for a bad foul on Grealish.

City playing with their food

74' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

It is almost as if winning games is too easy for City and they feel they have to give teams a chance before they finish them off, like the RB Leipzig come-from-behind win midweek.

Lewis on for Foden

73' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

Pep Guardiola makes his second change, bringing on Rico Lewis for Phil Foden.

Another chance for Lo Celso!

71' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

The ball comes to Lo Celso on the edge of the box on a Spurs corner, and his swerving shot just barely misses the top corner!

Spurs are all over City all of a sudden!

City have themselves to blame

70' Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham

City get what they deserve for taking their foot off the gas.
