"Yeah it is a big blow," said Carragher after the game. "We were five points behind before the weekend which was something we try to cut over the weekend, but with Man United winning and us drawing it has gone the other way.
"We would have preferred to have gone three or four points behind and it is going to make it more difficult for ourselves, but there is still a long way to go.
"You have got to give credit to Man City but we probably never created as much as we have liked.
"But to come back into it from 1-0 down we are pleased with that, we have done it a few times coming back this season but couldn't quite do it today."
