Manchester City missed the chance to move level on points with Arsenal after they were held to a 0-0 draw by already-relegated Southampton at the St Mary’s Stadium, Prompt News reports.
Pep Guardiola‘s side also squandered the chance to solidify their spot in the top five following the stalemate.
The Citizens now stay within touching distance of fellow Champions League chasers Newcastle United, Chelsea, Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa, with 65 points in third place.
