Jeremy Doku issues battle cry ahead of Man City’s Premier League season finale Jeremy Doku proved the saviour for Man City at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, scoring a sublime first-half opener and a dramatic 97th-minute equaliser to rescue a 3-3 draw against Everton. The result leaves Pep Guardiola’s side trailing league leaders Arsenal by five points, though City retain a game in hand with only a handful of fixtures remaining. City must navigate a congested schedule of five games in just 15 days, starting with a home clash against Brentford, while balancing preparation for the FA Cup Final against Chelsea.
Jeremy Doku has issued a warning to leaders Arsenal, insisting Manchester City have no intention of surrendering early despite a major setback on Monday night . Pep Guardiola’s side looked to be cruising toward a vital victory on Merseyside after Doku’s unstoppable, curling first-half effort hit the top corner and largely controlling proceedings by the time the half-time interval arrived. However, a chaotic second-half collapse – triggered by a defensive mix-up between Marc Guéhi and Gianluigi Donnarumma – allowed Everton to storm into a 3-1 lead.
