Erling Haaland came closest in the first half, pulling a shot narrowly wide of the post from 20 yards.
Phil Foden, making his first home appearance of the season, could also have opened the scoring but instead saw his right-footed strike denied.
Then, in the dying moments of the game, Ilkay Gundogan had two headers but could only aim the first at Sommer before clearing the bar with his second.
After the game, both managers congratulated each other on a point well earned in the first week of the new eight-match league phase of Europe’s elite competition.
