EPL: Why Man City failed to beat Tottenham – Guardiola

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has admitted a change in momentum saw his side drop points at Tottenham Hotspur.

Guardiola’s men drew 2-2 in North London on Sunday, despite taking a two-goal lead in the break.

Ryan Cherki and Antoine Semenyo scored for, before a second-half brace saw Spurs earn a point.

When asked about the game, Guardiola said: “They put more in the back, they found a goal and after that the momentum happened.

“Some transitions the control they had we didn’t have. It was not a big issue.”

On if the draw is a blow to the title race, Guardiola added: “We are playing at a high level.

“We didn’t have the consistency to win the games when others were able to do it, 14 games it a lot of games. Six points [gap to Arsenal]. Next one.”
