EPL Update: City Held to a Goalless Draw By Norwich.

Manchester City squandered a chance to return to the top of the Premier League as they were held at Norwich.

The visitors appeared hungover from their defeat by Chelsea on Monday, and their only genuine chance came when Alvaro Negredo headed against the bar.

Norwich’s Nathan Redmond fired high and wide before Jesus Navas was off target.
