- Rodri equaliser salvages 1-1 draw at Etihad
- ‘To compete against these teams you have to play 90 minutes’
A frustrated Pep Guardiola criticised Manchester City for only playing “one half” in Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium that leaves the champions in third, four points behind Liverpool, with a game in hand.
Raheem Sterling’s 43rd-minute strike came from a breakaway move that took advantage of City’s lax defending in the opening period, before Rodri’s late equaliser shared the points.
