The title race is officially on with five games left, as Arsenal have dropped from first place for the first time since September.
Speaking to Match of the Day post-match, Guardiola conceded City can’t afford any slip-ups if they want to win the trophy.
“We played a really good game, unfortunately, we missed a lot of chances. We defended better in the second half. Second half, we had less problems,” he said.
Addressing the difficulty of playing so soon after facing Arsenal: “It was such a demanding game on Sunday. It is not easy after three days but in the Premier League, you have to adjust.”
“We are used to doing it. We competed really well, we made a really good game but it's a pity the chances we had.”
“Now we have the FA Cup on Saturday and after that we have five games. The only chance is to win all the games.”
A win that takes us to the top 💪
