Manchester City are still without a win in this year's Champions League after being pegged back by CSKA Moscow on matchday three this evening.

The Premier League champions, who took a 2-0 lead into half time thanks to goals from Sergio Aguero and James Milner, now have just a slim chance of reaching the knockout stage.

CSKA fought back in the second half and had Seydou Doumbia and Bibras Natcho to thank for the point.

Here, Sports Mole gives each player a rating out of 10 for their performance at the Arena Khimki.

CSKA

Goal

Igor Akinfeev: Could do absolutely nothing about either City's tap-ins and was surprisingly not really troubled apart from that. (6/10)

Defence

Mario Fernandes: The Brazilian carelessly played both Dzeko and Aguero onside for the opening goal. (5/10)

Vassili Berezutski: Solid, if unspectacular from the Russian. (6/10)

Sergei Ignashevich: Extremely fortunate to stay on the pitch when he slid in from behind on Edin Dzeko but somehow escaped giving away a penalty and being sent off. After being let off, he kept Aguero and co. quiet in the second half. (6/10)

Alexei Berezutski: Taken off at half time for Doumbia as the hosts needed more presence going forward. (5/10)

Georgi Schennikov: A quiet game down the left for the Russian. (6/10)

Midfield

Zoran Tosic: Faded in and out of the game before he was taken off midway through the second half. Was particularly bright in the opening period and almost scored with a 25-yard rocket. (6/10)

Bibras Natcho: Made no mistake with the penalty and had much more influence on the game after half time. (7/10)

Roman Eremenko: Saw a fair amount of the ball, but didn't really effect the game. (6/10)

Georgi Milanov: Worked hard down the left, but made some silly mistakes. (6/10)

Attack

Ahmed Musa: The man of the match. Musa shone for Nigeria at this summer's World Cup and was a nuisance for City this evening. He was isolated in the first half as a lone striker but then had a growing influence after the break. Clever run and pass to set up the equaliser. (8/10)

Substitutes

Seydou Doumbia: Did exactly what his manager would have wanted after coming on as a half-time substitute, recovering from a hefty challenge to score the first and then winning the penalty for the second. (8/10)

Dmitri Efremov: Did very little after replacing Tosic. (6/10)

Aleksandrs Cauna: Replaced Doumbia in the final minute to whittle away some seconds. (6/10)

MAN CITY

Goal

Joe Hart: Made no mistakes and could do little about either goal. He dived the right way for the penalty, but it was just too high for him to stop. (6/10)

Defence

Pablo Zabaleta: Back in the team after missing out at the weekend and showcased, especially in the first half, his willingness to get forward. Almost scored himself and it was his clever header that led to Aguero setting up the second. (7/10)

Vincent Kompany: No-nonsence from the captain, but he will be disappointed that his side let in two goals. (6/10)

Eliaquim Mangala: Another display that will frustrate City fans. He showed that he can make crucial tackles, but was also caught out of position on several occasions. (5/10)

Aleksandar Kolarov: Like Zabaleta, was a threat when he got forward, but it was his challenge that gave CSKA a penalty. It might have been soft, but it was silly for Kolarov to try to win the ball from behind Doumbia. (5/10)

Midfield

Fernando: Booked for a sliding tackle from behind on Doumbia and sometimes careless in possession. Taken off late on. (5/10)

James Milner: Scored the second, but it was a tap-in and he should have had another but hit the post from close range. (6/10)

Yaya Toure: Incisive passes for both goals, but didn't influence the game enough after half time as City began to get overrun in midfield. (6/10)

David Silva: Showed some lovely touches in the first half and produced the ball of the match to set Dzeko free for the first goal. Removed with 12 minutes left. (7/10)

Attack

Sergio Aguero: Another goal for the in-form Argentine, whose cross-cum-shot also gave Milner his goal. Looked tired in the second half and should have perhaps been taken off earlier. (7/10)

Edin Dzeko: Did the right thing by squaring for Aguero when he could have shot himself for the opening goal. Also did far too little after half time before he was taken off in the 72nd minute. (6/10)

Substitutes

Jesus Navas: Saw quite a bit of the ball down the right, but couldn't deliver a telling cross. (6/10)

Fernandinho: Brought on to protect the back four and achieved that to some extent. (6/10)

Stevan Jovetic: Probably should have come on sooner for something fresh up front and couldn't make his mark in the five or so minutes he got. (6/10)
