On the Brighton pitch, Manchester City conceded another misstep in the Premier League this Saturday (1-2).
Nothing is going well for Manchester City. This Saturday, and although he was leading the score, the English champion suffered a fourth consecutive defeat, in all competitions. A defeat suffered on the ground of Brighton (1-2). Before that, Tottenham, Bournemouth and Sporting had also got the better of the Citizens.
This is the first time in his coaching career that Pep Guardiola has experienced such a negative series. Proof that a spring has broken within this Sky Blues formation. Even the Eastlands team had not experienced such a black streak since 2006. At the time, the coach was called Stuart Pearce.
Manchester City eats its black bread
Until 78e minute, the advantage was however in favor of the visitors. Erling Haaland had opened the scoring for his team and we thought City were going to get back on track. This was without taking into account the surge of the Seagulls. A start personified by the incoming Joao Pedro. The Brazilian provided a goal and an assist for Matthew O’Riley in the space of five minutes. A feat that plunged the Amex Stadium grounds into ecstasy.
By losing this Saturday, Man City remains in 2e
place in the ranking. Bernardo Silva and his partners could even find themselves five points behind Liverpool if the Reds win against Aston Villa. Conquering a fifth consecutive English championship title is proving much more complicated than expected for Guardiola and his men.
