Pep Guardiola has offered an “unusual excuse” on why Manchester City suffered a 1-0 away defeat to Tottenham Hotspur during a Premier League match on Sunday, February 5. Guardiola blames Manchester City's defeat to Tottenham on 'exhausting trip to London' Harry Kane’s 15th-minute goal which made him the top scorer for Tottenham, was enough to seal their defeat over Manchester City. Speaking to reporters after the defeat, Guardiola suggested that his players had been affected by the trip to north London. He said; Guardiola blames Manchester City's defeat to Tottenham on 'exhausting trip to London' “We are an attractive team. Our teams are always good, we try to go forward and be generous for our fans. Sometimes it doesn’t work, but I cannot complain much. When you win four Premier Leagues in five years we cannot complain much about what we have done and the way we have done it. “We try to continue to do it and improve the things that will help us in the future. But we go back to Manchester. Coming to London is like going to, I don’t know, northern Europe. It is 4 hours 20 minutes, 4 hours and a half to get to a hotel. It’s so exhausting to come to London, I’m sorry. We need to come back to Manchester and prepare for the game against Aston Villa.”

This is unprecedented: pic.twitter.com/ZGzdX210qP — Martyn Ziegler (@martynziegler) February 6, 2023 Since being taken over by the Abu Dhabi group in 2008, Manchester City have become one of football’s powerhouses thanks to considerable financial investment. The arrival of the Gulf based owners heralded a new era of unprecedented success with the club winning six Premier League titles since the takeover. Under the guidance of former Barcelona and Bayern coach Pep Guardiola, City won the Premier League in the 2017-18 season, becoming the only team in the competition history to attain 100 points in a single season. In 2018–19, they won four trophies, completing an unprecedented sweep of all domestic titles in England and becoming the first English men’s team to win the domestic treble. The Champions League title remains ‘unfinished business’ for the Sky Blues after the 2021 final defeat to Chelsea in Porto.

Mallorca fans were filmed racially abusing Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior in their Son Moix stadium during their 1-0 win over the La Liga champions on Sunday, February 5. Vinicius Jr racially abused by Mallorca fans during match against Real Madrid They were heard saying that the 22-year-old Brazilian striker is a monkey in a video published by the streaming company Dazn on social media. Vinicius was also subjected to 10 fouls during an ill-tempered contest in the Balearic Islands. He is also the most-fouled player in Europe’s top five leagues by a considerable margin this season. While Mallorca has decided not to deliver an official statement on the actions of certain sections of their support, the club’s coach Javier Aguirre who spoke during a radio interview, denied that his players had targeted Vinicius during the match. Vinicius has been subjected to racial abuse by fans on at least three occasions; at the Camp Nou against Barcelona in November 2021, at Atlético Madrid in September 2022, and at Valladolid in late December 2022. Vinicius Jr racially abused by Mallorca fans during match against Real Madrid Spanish police are also investigating a possible hate crime against him after a mannequin wearing his No 20 shirt was hung from a bridge in front of the club’s training centre before the Madrid derby two weeks ago. Prosecutors in Madrid decided not to press charges over racist chanting aimed at Vinícius in September after finding it had “lasted a few seconds” and had not constituted a crime. In December Vinicius accused La Liga of continuing to do nothing about racist fans at matches, after videos on social media showed some shouting abuse and throwing objects at him the previous day at Valladolid. La Liga responded by issuing a statement condemning all forms of hate speech and saying it was following up on instances of racism at the match. Its president, Javier Tebas, said Vinicius’ accusations were “unfair and untrue”.
