Manchester City has received another dampers in the fight for the Champions League places. The star ensemble of coach Pep Guardiola lost the top game in the Premier League in third place in the table Nottingham Forest with 0: 1 (0: 0). The former Leverkusen loan player Callum Hudson-Odoi scored the winning goal in the 83rd minute.
In the table, Nottingham thus expanded its lead over the reigning champion to four points. On Sunday, FC Chelsea can also replace the Citizens of fourth place, which guarantees the qualification for the Champions League, with a home win against the penultimate Leicester City.
Except for the hit by Hudson-Odoi, which had played for Bayer 04 21 games in the 2022/23 season, the duel offered few highlights. The only chance to equalize had Mateo Kovacic in added time, whose shot flew past the post.
