On home soil, Manchester City failed to maintain its three-goal lead and ended in a draw (3-3). Enough to anger Pep Guardiola who physically could not contain himself.
Manchester City's latest matches are very far from what the club has offered since the arrival of Pep Guardiola in 2016. Eight years of slick play which has repeatedly terrorized British and European opponents. The club's black streak is therefore more than historic. The Skyblues' last victory dates back to October 26 and since then, they have had 5 defeats and a draw while conceding 17 goals. In front of their home crowd, on a cold Champions League evening, Manchester City hoped to revive themselves by facing Feyenoord. But the outcome of the meeting demonstrates the club's current weaknesses in establishing its domination. Enough to anger Pep Guardiola who could not contain himself.
Pep Guardiola suffered a facial injury
After less than an hour of play, Manchester City finally seemed to have regained confidence. The Skyblues led three to zero before Pep Guardiola made a triple change just before the 70th minute. From there, Feyenoord made up ground by scoring three goals in a quarter of an hour. A situation which clearly did not please Pep Guardiola. Usually, stress can cause some people to bite their nails. The Spanish technician took the next step by inflicting a facial injury.
Not going unnoticed, the latter was the subject of questions at a press conference. “ I did this to myself with my finger. With my nail. I wanted to hurt myself. Good night “, simply blurted out Pep Guardiola. If he could have pulled his hair out after seeing his team claw back a three-goal lead, he surely would have too.
