In our first outing in the European competition in a decade, Ben Wilkinson’s side looked determined from kick-off to beat an organised Dutch side.
We took a deserved lead just after the half-hour mark, with Emilio Lawrence firing home at the back post after a high press from Divine Mukasa and Charlie Gray paid off.
But a Jack Wint own goal on the brink of half-time, forced by Dele Thomas who saw his ranged effort rattle the crossbar before rebounding off the City goalkeeper’s back, saw momentum shift.
Thomas then gave the visitors the lead with another strike from distance, with City regretting missed opportunities in the first half.
However, Wilkinson’s side didn’t give up. It took the final attack of the game, but City found an equaliser.
Substitute Reigan Heskey did well to juggle the ball under pressure and then placed his shot into the bottom right corner in the fourth minute of added time.
It means City have something to build on in Group A, with fixtures against Real Madrid, RB Leipzig and AS Monaco to come.
