Despite creating several chances each, neither side was able to break the deadlock in a replay of the 2023 Champions League final.
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.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan was perhaps the guiltiest party - firing a shot from 10 yards high over Ederson‘s goal.
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.
