Pep Guardiola admits title hopes are fading after Manchester City's loss to Spurs
India TodayPep Guardiola has admitted that Manchester City's title defence could be all but over if they lose to Liverpool at Anfield next Sunday. For Pep Guardiola, it marked an unprecedented low, as the loss extended City's losing streak to five matches across all competitions-the first time the celebrated manager has endured such a run in his illustrious career. James Maddison's first-half brace, Pedro Porro's clinical strike shortly after the interval, and Brennan Johnson's injury-time goal left City's defense shattered and ended their remarkable 52-match unbeaten home streak in all competitions. If the Reds triumph at Anfield next Sunday against City, Guardiola's side could find themselves 11 points adrift, a margin the manager admits may be impossible to close.
