    "editor1": "Champions League: After facing a 2-0 loss to Juventus in the Champions League at Allianz Stadium, Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola said that City were going through a \u2018tough\u2019 period but reiterated his full confidence in his side\u2019s capacity to bounce back to form quickly.<p>Second-half goals from Dusan Vlahovic and Weston McKennie secured victory for Juventus despite Manchester City dominating possession and territory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The defeat continued City's disappointing form, leaving them with just one win in their last 10 matches and placing them in 22nd position in the 36-team Champions League table with two games still to play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cOf course it\u2019s tough. Except one or two games in this period that were not good, we played quite similar, and I give credit to Juventus. I don\u2019t think it was defensive mistakes much. That was not the reason (we lost), other games yes but not today. We missed that last pass when we arrive in the six-yard box. That was the difference today, but I love my team,\" Guardiola said in post-match presser.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cI love my team the way we play and the result is not going to convince me of the opposite. Congratulations on the way they defended, in the transitions they did it. But we were incredibly aggressive in our high pressing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cWe won the long balls and the back four was really good. Of course, it was a cross and Vlahovic is strong in that position. But the way we played I\u2019m really pleased,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Reflecting on what has been a tough passage of results, Guardiola added that he was always analysing performances and seeking to try and find the best way to inspire his players.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"I say that every game we played good I analyse. What happened in the results is one question. I am asking here: what do I play today to play really good?<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cOf course, I question myself in the good moments and the bad moments. I was stable in the good moments and I\u2019m stable in the bad moments. Of course, I try to find a way and do it but the game was there. I\u2019m incredibly honest about knowing when we don\u2019t play good or play good, always the game will save us.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"I say that every game we played good I analyse. What happened in the results is one question. I am asking here: what do I play today to play really good?<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/tagging\/highest-tax-paying-cricketers\">Highest tax paying cricketers<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n",
