Newcastle United welcomed in-form Manchester City to St James' Park on Tuesday night knowing that three points would move them out of the relegation zone in the Premier League table.
Sergio Aguero's 100th Premier League goal saw Man City take a 14th-minute lead, but Vurnon Anita levelled in the 31st minute to leave the two teams on terms entering the half-time break.
Both teams had chances to score a second in the second 45 minutes, but it finished level as Newcastle missed the chance to move out of the bottom three.
