Manchester City's winless run continues after being held to a frustrating 3-3 draw by Dutch side Feyenoord in an exciting UEFA Champions League match on Tuesday. The result left manager Pep Guardiola with cuts and scratches on his face. City's last win was against Southampton on 26 October.
While sharing thoughts on his team's performance Guardiola appeared before the media with a cut on his nose as well as some scratches across the top of his bald head. When asked about those marks, the Manchester City manager said, “Yeah, my finger here My nail.” He then added with a smile: “I want to harm myself.”
“We’ve lost a lot of games lately. We are fragile and we needed a victory. The game was good for the confidence. We played at a good level but something happened and then we had problems.
“I don’t know if it’s mental. The first goal cannot happen and the second as well. We are desperate to win and do well but we don’t win games. The situation is what it is,” he added.
Manchester City's worrying form
After taking a 3-0 lead, City conceded three goals after the 75th minute. Goalkeeper Ederson and defender Josko Gvardiol were largely responsible for the goals conceded. Guardiola admitted that City are an unstable team at the moment. “We are not stable. We give them the first and the other ones so that’s why it’s difficult,”
Guardiola is currently on one of the worst runs in his managerial career. City lost five straight games in all competitions for the first time before the implosion against Feyenoord. No team in the Champions League had ever lost a three-goal lead as late as the 75th minute and failed to win the game.
