Man City throw away two-goal lead as Brentford snatch draw

Christian Nørgaard's stoppage-time header gave Brentford a thrilling 2-2 Premier League draw against Manchester City as the hosts cancelled out two second-half goals from Phil Foden to grab a share of the spoils on Tuesday.

After struggling to create chances in the first half, the breakthrough finally came for City in the 66th minute when a brilliant ball from the right by Kevin De Bruyne was met with a deft volley from Foden, who steered it in at the far post.

Foden made it 2-0 12 minutes later, rattling home the rebound after Savinho's initial shot was saved, but Brentford's Yoane Wissa ensured a nervy finish when he fired home from close range to reduce the deficit in the 82nd minute.
