Moscow: Manchester City face a massive task to qualify from Champions League Group E after letting slip a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with CSKA Moscow on Tuesday.

The Premier League champions desperately needed a win in Moscow after an opening defeat to Bayern Munich and a draw with AS Roma, and they were coasting to victory with first-half goals from Sergio Aguero and James Milner.

But CSKA got one back after the break via substitute Seydou Doumbia, with Bebras Natcho equalising with a spot-kick with four minutes remaining. The game was played out in sub-zero temperatures in an eerily empty Arena Khimki Stadium.
