Manchester City are having a miserable season, and today Pep Guardiola received a slap in the face like he hasn't had many in his career...
The reigning English champions took a step back in their fight for Champions League qualification after only winning a point away to Southampton - a team that was mathematically relegated from the elite on April 6th.
It was 0-0 at St Mary's, and even City's nearly 30 shots on goal by Aaron Ramsdale didn't help...
Erling Haaland returned to the team, and he was a pale shadow of the hellish goal scorer, Kevin de Bruyne missed the best chances in the first half, and the only one who wanted to find a way to the net at all costs was Omar Marmuš.
However, he only entered the game in the 86th minute and had two great chances in the space of ten minutes - it wasn't enough for City to break the "saints"...
City, in third place in the table, has 65 points, two more than Newcastle and Chelsea, and plus four compared to sixth-placed Nottingham Forest - they also have a game more than all their rivals.
