EPL: Manchester City lose points in their first match without Rodri
The sixth round of the English Premier League started with another loss of points for Manchester City. After a home draw with Arsenal in the previous round, Guardiola's team failed to win in Newcastle.
Although it was the visitors who opened the scoring, when in the 35th minute after Jack Grealish's pass Josko Guardiol sent the ball low into the corner of the goal. But after the break Ederson had a foul in his own penalty area and the referee awarded a penalty to City - Anthony Gordon neatly sent the ball into the left corner.
1-1 - a second consecutive draw for Manchester City, which could allow their rivals to overtake the Mancunians.
