Phil Foden came off the bench to secure Manchester City a 1-1 draw at West Ham. The young midfielder, on at half-time to replace Sergio Aguero, took just six minutes to haul Pep Guardiola’s side level. West Ham had taken a first-half lead through a spectacular bicycle kick from Michail Antonio. City, transformed by the introductions of Foden and fit-again Kevin De Bruyne, dominated the second half but were unable to add to their solitary goal. The Hammers will be encouraged by another point, following on from Sunday’s dramatic comeback at Tottenham, and given that their record in this fixture is atrocious. But injuries and have taken their toll on City, so much so that Guardiola named an unchanged starting line-up for the first time since October 2017, some 172 games ago.
