Guardiola fumes Sterling goal Man City Disasi responds Chelsea
Pep Guardiola furious as Raheem Sterling scores against Manchester City, Chelsea's defense limits City's chances in shocking game.
Pep Guardiola was absolutely livid after Manchester City were caught off guard by a devastating counter-attack from Chelsea, resulting in Raheem Sterling scoring against his former team for the second time this season. The 29-year-old missed an earlier opportunity to give Chelsea the lead but made no mistake with a more challenging chance, cutting inside Kyle Walker and curling the ball into the far corner.
This was the third significant chance created by Chelsea's attack, with Nicolas Jackson also having a similar opportunity earlier in the half, which was thwarted by Ederson. City, who entered the game on a remarkable 11-game winning streak and unbeaten in 14, were left stunned by this turn of events.
With Liverpool and Arsenal securing victories earlier in the day, the pressure was on City to close the gap on the leaders. Guardiola's frustration was evident as he reacted angrily to Sterling's goal, displaying an outpouring of emotion on the touchline, a stark contrast to the recent success his team has enjoyed.
As City pushed to equalize, they missed several clear chances, and the Chelsea defense, led by Axel Disasi, limited their opportunities. Disasi's outstanding defensive display only served to further infuriate Guardiola, who was visibly exasperated by the turn of events.
