EPL: Bad decisions - Guardiola on why Man City drew with Newcastle

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has said his players made "bad decisions" in their 1-1 draw at Newcastle United in Saturday's early kick-off.

The Premier League champions took the lead in the first half through Josko Gvardiol.

However, the Magpies were awarded a controversial penalty, with Nick Pope producing an excellent stop to deny City a late winner.

Guardiola told TNT Sports:

"They had moments in the first ten minutes and after their goal, but in general we played really good.

"We made bad decisions at the last minute to make it 2-0. It is always difficult here with their physicality and they defend so deep. We had chances but [Nick] Pope was brilliant so we take the point.

"When we scored we played better. We make a mistake and after that they play better. But then we take the game again and had chances to win it."
