    Match summary

    Manchester City came from behind to earn a 1-1 draw with Southampton and return to the top of the Premier League on goal difference.

    Kelechi Iheanacho came on as a half-time substitute to score the equaliser to cancel out Nathan Redmond's 27th-minute opener.

    Southampton took the lead when Redmond pounced on a back pass from John Stones intended for Vincent Kompany - the City captain making his first PL appearance since 19 April - and rounded Claudio Bravo to silence the Etihad Stadium.

    Stones thought that he had made amends shortly afterwards when he connected with Kevin De Bruyne's free-kick, only to be denied by an offside  decision against Sergio Aguero.

    Iheanacho replaced De Bruyne at half-time and within 10 minutes had equalised, meeting Leroy Sane's low, left-wing centre.

    City threatened a second with Ilkay Gundogan and Iheanacho thwarted by Fraser Forster but City, who move on to 20 points along with Arsenal and Liverpool, had to settle for a point.
