Goals from Christian Pulisic and Willian helped Chelsea beat Manchester City 2-1 at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has explained the reason for the defeat against Chelsea.

He said: “In general we were there. In terms of attacking we were good.

“It is not easy to attack Chelsea with the physicality in their team.

“Unfortunately, we made mistakes and at this level against this quality it is difficult.

“We played until the end with a huge personality. In general I am satisfied with the performance.

“We wanted to win the game. We did good things but we have to learn we have to be consistent.”
