In the 11th round of the Premier League, Erling Haaland’s goal was not enough to save Manchester City, who conceded two goals in the second half and ultimately lost 1-2 away to Brighton. After the match, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola spoke to the media.
About the Match
“We can’t play a full 90 minutes right now. We played very well in the first half, and we also did well in the second half. We lost again, so we need to clear our heads. The international break is coming up, and I hope our players can return healthy.”
About Manchester City’s Injured Players
“The players who took the field performed very well, really great. Brighton have strong ball control, and it’s not easy to control the game against them. We played very well in the first half, but fatigue started to set in during the second half, and they made substitutions. We will make adjustments and come back stronger after the international break.”
About Four Consecutive Losses
“Two of these losses were in the Premier League. Losing two consecutive matches is not good. We had some good moments, but not for the entire duration of the games. We need to change to win again. We are not far from the top, and we were second before the international break.”
Will Manchester City be stronger once the injured players return?
“I don’t know, but we will get better. It depends on everyone—the whole team.”
