Pep still remembers...
This Sunday, at 5:30 PM, Manchester City hosts Manchester United. A Manchester derby between two teams that have started their season quite poorly, making it already crucial.
And be careful, because one of the two has a very bad memory of the last derby played at the Etihad Stadium...
December 15, 2024, City hosts United. Pep Guardiola and his players are going through a crisis as surprising as it is spectacular. In the last six Premier League matches, Man. City has only managed to secure four small points. Across all competitions, Manchester City has won only once in 11 matches.
It is in this context that City hosts United. However, everything starts well for the Citizens. Joško Gvardiol opens the score in the first half. 1-0.
No more goals are scored, it's the 85th minute. Manchester City is managing, and it seems that Guardiola and his team will bounce back thanks to this derby.
Problem...
Problem, City is going to sabotage itself in just five minutes. Manchester United gets a penalty in the 86th minute after a missed pass by Matheus Nunes. Bruno Fernandes converts it, 1-1. A minute later, the thunderbolt: Amad Diallo gives the advantage to MU. City 1-2 United.
Another improbable defeat for Manchester City and a new tormentor for Pep Guardiola...

Nine months after this improbable defeat, Man. City will want revenge this Sunday...
