MANCHESTER, England -- Three points on Manchester City 1-1 Middlesbrough in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
1. Stubborn Boro surprise City
From the glory of beating Barcelona 3-1 in the Champions League to the dirge of a disappointing 1-1 draw with Middlesbrough. Nothing brings you down to earth quite as quickly as a football match.
Manchester City dominated a one-sided first half, endured a stodgy second and then surrendered their lead in injury time to throw away two points that should have been locked up.
For 43 minutes, the team that bossed the Catalans toiled fruitlessly against the struggling Premier League newcomers.
