Gabriel Jesus scored with an 85th-minute header to claim a 2-2 draw for Manchester City at the Riverside Stadium.
He rose highest to head home Sergio Aguero's cross just eight minutes after Calum Chambers had given Middlesbrough a 2-1 lead when he pounced on a loose ball in the area.
Middlesbrough's former Man City striker, Alvaro Negredo, put the home side ahead on 38 minutes with a shot that went in off the post.
