‘Maybe next season will be better’: Guardiola reacts to Manchester derby defeat – video | Football

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was left to lament his side’s defensive failings after they were 2-1 at home by rivals Manchester United.

Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial put United 2-0 up in the first half and although Nicolás Otamendi pulled a goal back for the champions and set up a nerve-wracking finish, the visitors held firm.

Manchester City’s return of 32 points after 16 games is the worst start to a season for Pep Guardiola in his managerial career.
