The head coach of Premier League club Manchester City, Pep Guardiola, admitted in an interview with the Daily Mail that the Citizens suffered their defeat in the FA Cup final of the 2023/2024 season due to a "hangover."
Following last season, Manchester City secured 91 points over 38 matches and claimed the championship title. However, on May 25, City lost to Manchester United in the national cup final (1-2). According to Guardio💃la, thꦕe team chose the wrong tactics for the match.
Congraꦑtulations. This is the news. The news is not that we lost, it’s how for a long time we didn’t lost it. Of course there was the FA Cup final, but we were a bit hungover.

Previously, Guardiola shared in a conversation with insider Fabrizio Romano that he would be happy to see Dutch coach Erik ten Hag, recently dismissed from Man🐟chester United, join his coaching staff.
