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.
