Erling Haaland was always going to need a rest at some point, but it sums up his impact on Manchester City that on a night when he didn't play the Blues failed to find the back of the net for the first time in 23 games.
Playing with 10 men for an hour was clearly an impediment to the threat they could pose an obdurate but limited FC Copenhagen side, but even with 11 on the pitch the danger had been sporadic.
City had struck 44 goals in 12 games since the Community Shield but suddenly drew a blank in Denmark. It was a disappointing night but the point is almost certainly enough to secure progress from the group.
