Premier League: Relegated Saints Dent City’s Top-five Hopes With Dogged Draw
Substitute Omar Marmoush: Manchester City’s quest for a top-five Premier League finish took a major hit on Saturday as Pep Guardiola’s side were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw by already-relegated Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium here on Saturday.
Despite dominating possession and territory for the entire 90 minutes, the Blues were unable to find a way past a resolute Saints defence and a defiant Aaron Ramsdale in goal.
It was a performance that lacked City's usual fluidity and cutting edge and one that Guardiola will look back on as a significant missed opportunity. With rivals continuing to pile on pressure in the race for European places, two dropped points against the Premier League’s bottom club could prove costly.
