This score line is somehow funny and surprising to me. While I was hoping that Manchester City will escape the competition in the top five by winning convincingly today against Southampton they rather decided to share points, now Manchester City is still in probability.
Why I said this is funny is that Southampton who is already relegated held Manchester City to a goalless draw. Like, what are they now actually fighting for? This match has shown me that there's no match fixing in EPL, if not, it could be a easy task in the above match.
Man City completely dominated the match even though they were playing as guests. It's just a shame that none of the many opportunities they got could be converted into goals, and it seems they really missed out on clinical finishing. Luckily, they still got 1 point because at least they didn't get knocked out of the top 5 this week. If Newcastle draws against Chelsea, then Man City will remain in third place, but if either side wins the match, then Man City will drop to 4th place.
From this match, it can be seen that Man City is still inconsistent. I think they could lose the opportunity to play in the Champions League if they do not get maximum results in the remaining two matches.
