Managers Reaction
Spurs boss Antonio Conte: “It was an emotional game for sure, it was an exciting game. We played a good game. We followed a plan. Manchester City would keep the possession for 65 to 70 minutes for the game so we needed to be good tactically. But even when defending our first thought should be to attack.”
Man City boss Pep Guardiola: “They are clinical. They have Kane and Son and Kulusevski. Their crosses we could not defend. We didn’t have the momentum. We didn’t need to lose a game already to know how hard it is [to win the league]. There are many, many games still to play.”
