JAKARTA - Josep Guardiola as Manchester City coach admitted that he was out of words for the results achieved by his team. Guardiola was surprised by City's failed points even though they had many opportunities againstTEN Forest.

In the 24th week of the English Premier League 2022/2023, City had the opportunity to visit the City Ground Stadium, which is the headquarters ofTEN. The match on Saturday, February 18 that night was targeted by City as a moment to reap three points to maintain the top position of the standings.

But in fact the game went tight, the first goal was even created in the 40th minute for City through Bernardo Silva. After that, The Citizens are still trying to add goals.

Erling Haaland, who became the main focus of the Manchester Blue team, actually got two golden opportunities in front of goal in a row, when City was 1-0 up. But he failed to convert it into a goal.

Instead of making City's lead, it slumped because money actually equalized in the 83rd minute through Chris Wood. That moment then made the match end in a 1-1 draw.

The three wasted points made City fail to lift Arsenal from the top of the standings. The Gunners are two points ahead. This moment became a result that Guardiola regretted and acknowledged by the coach, making him speechless.

Guardiola was surprised that City had 23 attractors with nine towards goal, but only one could be a number.

"A great performance, we played very well but couldn't score. At a level like this, you have to be able to score goals and that's why we lost points," said Pep Guardiola at Sky Sports on Sunday, February 19.

"We should have taken a 2-0 or 3-0 lead in the first half, we conceded from the first shot on goal and lost points. We were sad and disappointed, but we played very well."

"We wasted chances when we were only one meter away from the goalkeeper, not just once, but several times. Therefore we didn't win. I have to say what else to try?" said the coach.
