Manchester City Sets Unwanted Champions League Record

Manchester City made unwanted history during their UEFA Champions League clash against Feyenoord. The reigning English champions became the first team in Champions League history to surrender a three-goal lead in the final 15 minutes of a match.

City were cruising at 3-0 by the 75th minute at the Etihad Stadium, seemingly set to snap their dismal five-game losing streak across all competitions. However, Feyenoord's late surge saw the Dutch side snatch an improbable 3-3 draw, leaving City fans stunned and Pep Guardiola frustrated.

A Painful Milestone for Guardiola

For the first time in his 942-game managerial career, Pep Guardiola witnessed his side fail to win after holding a three-goal advantage. The result marked the first time City have dropped points from such a commanding position since a 3-3 draw against Bournemouth in May 1989, back in the second tier of English football.

Mixed Feelings for City

Despite the draw bringing an end to their five-match losing streak, this result will likely feel more like a defeat for City. The collapse underscores the defensive frailties that have plagued Guardiola’s side this season and raises questions ahead of their upcoming fixtures in both domestic and European competitions.
