​Manchester City dropped precious points in the Premier League title race as Pep Guardiola’s side were beaten 2-1 at home by Brentford (round of 16).
Manchester City lost at home to Brentford
Toney opened the scoring at the Etihad Stadium in the 16th minute for Brentford, while Foden managed to restore parity in first-half stoppage time (45+1) from Akanji’s cross.
Despite the dominant possession of the ball and many goal-scoring actions, “Manchester City” could not score a single time, and in addition, the guests conducted a devastating counterattack: Tony scored a “double” in the 98th minute.
The defeat left City with 32 points from 14 games, two points behind leaders Arsenal. The Gunners, however, have a less competitive match (they will play at 21:45 at Wolverhampton).
On the other hand, Brentford are in 10th place with 19 points from 15 Premier League games played.
