In what was a pulsating, high quality affair, the reigning champions twice led at the Etihad.
An early Erling Haaland penalty put is ahead and then a superb strike from Omar Marmoush restored City’s advantage after the Seagulls had levelled through a Pervis Estupinan free-kick..
However, an Abdukodir Khusanov own goal early after the second half restart meant that the points were shared.
The result left City in fifth place in the table and still well in the hunt for Champions League football next season as we go into the March international break.
