LIVERPOOL, England — Riyad Mahrez missed an 85th-minute penalty as Manchester City wasted a chance to move clear of Premier League title rival Liverpool following a 0-0 draw at Anfield on Sunday. The two unbeaten sides are now on the same 20-point mark as Chelsea, which coasted to a 3-0 win at Southampton earlier in the day. Liverpool and City appeared reluctant to commit to all-out attack and only succeeded in cancelling each other out. Mahrez let slip a good chance on the hour when he shot wide when well placed in the penalty box. The draw means Liverpool has now gone four matches without a win in all competitions.
