Three defeats from the last four games – after the 0-1 defeat at Arsenal FC, Champions League winners Manchester City’s nerves were on edge.
After the game, star striker Erling Haaland and Kyle Walker clashed violently with Arsenal assistant coach Nicolas Jover, who worked at City between 2019 and 2021. Manchester star coach Pep Guardiola did not want to clarify the situation afterwards. “I know what happened, but I won’t say anything,” said the Spaniard.
Gabriel Martinelli had previously ensured Arsenal’s late victory. The English champions suffered their second league defeat in a row and slipped to third place. City were also eliminated from the League Cup. Only RB Leipzig managed to win in the last few games in the Champions League.
