LONDON Erling Haaland had a second-half penalty saved as Manchester City's astonishing slump continued with a 1-1 draw against lowly Everton at the Etihad Stadium on Dec 26.
Winners of the last four English Premier League titles, the English champions have now won just once in their last 13 games in all competitions.
Bernardo Silva put City in front early on before Iliman Ndiaye salvaged a point for the Toffees.
The home side climb to sixth but could end the day five points adrift of the top four, while a hard-fought point for the visitors edges Everton five clear of the relegation zone in 15th before the later matches.
City boss Pep Guardiola had conceded ahead of the game that his side are at risk of failing to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in 15 years.
The top four automatically qualify for Europe's premier club competition, but fifth place is likely to be enough this season due to a strong start by English clubs in European competition.
