Anyway, thanks for your company ... night-night!

So there we go. City weren't good enough to win that really, creating few clearcut chances in either half. Everton, on the other hand, defended very well, Jagielka in particular, and though they need to find a more attacking first XI, will feel plaeased with their point once they've finished being naused about not getting three.

Full-time: Manchester City 1-1 Everton
90+4'
Danilo makes ground down the right and crosses towards the far side ... but Klaassen stretches every sinew and follicle to takes the ball away form Aguero! That is a goalsaving intervention!
90+3'
Sterling gambols past Keane and into the box ... he's got a sight of goal! But he lashes a cross behind everyone instead!
90+2'
Superb challenge from Besic, hard on Silva, and he finds Calvert-Lewin ... suddenly Everton are in! All Besic needs to do is connect with a backheel, and Calvert-Lewin is through! But he can't! Wa wa wa!
90+1'
"It's been a fascinating game tactically," says Andy Hinchcliffe, who must be a right card.
90'
There shall be four minutes for Everton to waste.

Off goes Rooney, as slowly as possible - now now, don't be nasty - and on comes Besic.

RED CARD SCHNEIDERLIN! He slides in hard to shove the ball away from Aguero, catching him with his trailing leg. Aguero intimates agony, and the second yellow is duly shown. Harsh.
88'
Rooney wins a throw deep inside the City half, and Everton take plenty of time over it; Little Bobby Madley indicates that he's stopping his watch.
87'
Everton are sitting deeper and deeper, but have the defenders for that kind of activity. On the other hand, they're inviting pressure and City have their tails up.
85'
Bernardo to Sterling, who slides a ball down the side of Keane, far too close to Aguero, who spins him ... but slips just as he's about to shoot.

Rooney is booked for lair, obviously.

GOAL! Manchester City 1-1 Everton (Sterling) Danilo is given time to cross, coming inside on his left foot so to do, and Holgate, who's had a fine game, bumps a header back into, instead of away from danger. The ball falls perfectly for Sterling, who drills a low volley past Pickford. That's a very good finish.
82'
Sterling races towards the box and crosses hard and low, but can only pick out Keane, who pumps clear.
80'
Silva lumps over a cross for Aguero who, realising he's not getting any of it, flings himself to the floor when breathed upon by Baines. No penalty.
78'

Calvert-Lewin breaks, so Kompany upends him on the left touchline; he's booked. The free-kick then finds Rooney, but he can't get enough on his header and the ball flies over the bar.

Danilo barges in from the right, arrives inside the box, and picks up Sterling's pass before cutting onto his left foot and driving hard and low ... Pickford does superbly to shovel it away with a strong hand.
76'
Calvert-Lewin and Otamendi jump for a high ball, the former catching the latter with his fingertips. Otamendi collapses, then leaps up in fury when no card is forthcoming.
