Manchester City crisis deepen as they surrendered a three-goal lead late in the game to draw 3-3 against Feyenoord in the Champions League.

Pep Guardiola’s side at least avoided the indignity of a sixth successive defeat in all competitions but alarm bells continue to ring at the Etihad Stadium after a dramatic late capitulation.

A double from Erling Haaland – the first from ทางเข้า ufabet the penalty spot – and a deflected effort from Ilkay Gundogan, all in the space of nine minutes either side of the break, looked to have ensured a return to winning ways.

Yet Guardiola was left with his head in hands as Feyenoord roar back in the last 15 minutes with goal. From Anis Hadj Moussa, Sergio Gimenez and David Hancko. Two of them after Josko Gvardiol errors.

City almost snatched a late winner when Jack Grealish hit the woodwork but there was no masking another dispiriting result.

It was hardly the preparation City wanted for Sunday’s crunch trip to Liverpool. The Feyenoord fans took great delight in rubbing that fact in.

They sung the club anthem they share with Liverpool. You’ll Never Walk Alone, and chanted the name of their former manager Arne Slot, the current Reds boss.

Guardiola arrive at the ground with a cut on the bridge of his nose and, once again. His side have struck a nasty blow.

Despite not being at their best, they had dominated early on against what seemed limited Dutch opposition.

They threatened when a Gundogan shot was deflecte wide and Haaland then went close to opening the scoring. When he turned a header onto the post.

Feyenoord goalkeeper Timon Wellenreuther gifted City another chance. When he pass straight to Bernardo Silva but Grealish’s fierce volley struck team-mate Phil Foden.

Foden forced a save from Wellenreuther but City had a moment of alarm. When Igor Paixao got behind the defence only to shoot tamely at Ederson.
