Man City throw away 3-0 lead and draw with Feyenoord

While Feyenoord fans celebrated wildly at the end, City’s players looked shell-shocked after another game to forget.

In the space of four weeks, Guardiola’s side have crashed out of the EFL Cup, lost three Premier League games on the spin and dropped five points out of six in the Champions League.

This felt like a defeat at the end as City capitulated at the back after establishing a commanding lead.

Haaland put them ahead from the penalty spot after being brought down by Quinten Timber, before Gundogan’s left-footed volley, which took a vicious deflection, doubled the lead shortly after the break.

When Haaland swept in to divert Matheus Nunes’ low cross over the line in the 53rd minute, it looked like a game until Gvardiol’s careless pass allowed Feyenoord a route back.

It was another sloppy performance from a City team that has lost its way.

Guardiola had a pained expression at the end.

City are 15th in the Champions League table – two points off an automatic place in the last 16 – having dropped seven points from five games.

The 2023 winners travel to Juventus next in the competition on December 11 and then face Paris St-Germain away on January 22 before hosting Club Brugge in their final group game on January 29.
