EPL on Citi: Southampton grab shock draw against Manchester City

Relegated Southampton held Manchester City to a goalless draw at St Mary's. This result allowed Southampton to surpass the Premier League record low of 11 points. They now have 12 points, keeping Derby County's record from 2007-08 intact for another year.

City could have tied with Arsenal for second place with a win. Instead, they delivered a poor attacking performance before their FA Cup final against Crystal Palace. Erling Haaland returned from injury but had little impact on the game.

Pep Guardiola's team played slowly against a packed Southampton defense. They struggled to create chances throughout the match. Defender Manuel Akanji headed wide from a corner kick.

Bernardo Silva had a shot cleared off the line by Saints captain Jack Stephens. Southampton goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale was rarely tested until late in the game. He saved a header from Ruben Dias and watched Omar Marmoush hit the crossbar.

The home crowd cheered as Southampton secured only their third clean sheet this season.
