City are five points behind Arsenal with only one match in hand, and the Gunners will be crowned champions if they win their final three games.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Everton, meanwhile, remain in the race for European qualification, climbing to 10th place with 48 points.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Man City led at half-time through Jeremy Doku but then had a hugely damaging 13-minute spell in which they conceded three times to fall 3-1 behind, Thierno Barry scoring twice from the bench either side of a Jake O\u2019Brien goal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pep Guardiola's side managed a late comeback, with Erling Haaland scoring immediately after kick-off in the 83rd minute, and Doku then curling in his second goal of the match deep into stoppage time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Everton had to weather an early storm, with Man City recording 86.4 per cent possession across the opening 20 minutes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
But the hosts eventually gained a foothold, and midfielder Merlin Rohl \u2013 playing in an unfamiliar wide role \u2013 burst in behind Man City\u2019s defence just after the half-hour mark, though his cross was palmed out of Beto's path by Gianluigi Donnarumma.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Everton\u2019s resolve was punctured in the 43rd minute by a moment of magic from Doku, who created a yard of space on the edge of the box and curled an unstoppable effort into the top-left corner, Premier League reports.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Ndiaye forced Donnarumma into a save, but a huge chance went begging for the Toffees\u2019 No 10 soon after as the chaos started.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
A long punt forward caused havoc for Man City\u2019s defence, but one-on-one with Donnarumma, Ndiaye sent a tame effort straight at the goalkeeper.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Everton striker Barry, not long on as a substitute, made no such mistake and gratefully slotted home when Man City centre-back Marc Guehi underplayed a simple back pass in the 68th minute.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Guehi atoned somewhat when he thwarted Ndiaye with a last-ditch challenge, but from the resulting corner, Everton defender O\u2019Brien headed in from James Garner\u2019s 73rd-minute inswinger.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Everton striker Barry, not long on as a substitute, made no such mistake and gratefully slotted home when Man City centre-back Marc Guehi underplayed a simple back pass in the 68th minute.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
That error proved costly for Everton when they failed to clear their lines from a corner in the seventh minute of stoppage time, and Doku was once again given too much space to slam in a wonderful finish.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
