Southampton 1-1 Man City Stats and Highlights

A magical equaliser from Dani Osvaldo secured a deserved draw for Southampton as Manchester City’s stuttering away form in the league continued.

Sergio Aguero gave Manchester City the lead, sweeping home a fine Aleksandar Kolarov cross from six yards.

Aguero then missed an easy chance to double the lead and paid the price as Osvaldo beautifully floated in a shot into the far top corner to level.

Osvaldo missed two great chances after the break in a half Saints dominated.
