Britain's The Sun reported on the 22nd (Korean time) 'Anger Guardiola threw a water bottle to the point of tears'
Manchester City lost 1-2 to Aston Villa in the 17th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season at Villa Park in Birmingham, England on the 21st (Korea time).
The defeat failed to bounce Manchester City off a disastrous record. He has won only one game (two draws and nine losses) in the last 12 games and has failed to win four games in a row. Guardiola had never lost four consecutive games in his managerial career before this slump. Along with the previous experience of losing five consecutive games, he could add another four consecutive wins depending on the result of the next Everton match.
Manchester City was dragged away by allowing the first goal of the game. In the 16th minute of the first half, John Duran calmly finished with a shot despite Stephane Ortega's advance in the box and cut the Manchester City goal. Manchester City, which finished 0-1 in the first half, tried to fight back, but Villa scored. In the 19th minute of the second half, Morgan Rogers, who received John McGinn's pass in the counterattack, shook Manchester City's net with a left-footed shot. Phil Foden's comeback goal was scored in the extra time of the second half, but the game had already leaned toward Villa.

Earlier, Guardiola drew attention for his misbehavior. Guardiola appeared at the interview site on November 27 when Manchester City allowed three goals while leading 3-0 in the fifth round of the European Champions League (UCL) phase against Feyenoord and ended up in a 3-3 draw.
Along with red lines in various parts of the face, there were wounds on the nose and blood was flowing. Guardiola is a wound made from a nail for that wound. I cut my nails during the game. I wanted to hurt myself." It was the result of not being able to suppress the disappointment of the result of the game. This water bottle incident added an action.
Villa fans, meanwhile, also mocked Guardiola's current situation. The Sun said 'Villa fans believed Guardiola was on the verge of tears' Some Villa fans posted on social media that "He's about to cry", It was reported that fans in the stadium even shouted at Guardiola after Rodgers' goal that `You're going to be replaced tomorrow morning.'
