Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has blamed his players for throwing a two-goal lead, to draw 2-2 with Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
Hugo Lloris gifted the home team two goals, before Dele Alli and Son Heung-Min scored to level the game for Spurs.
Son’s goal came less than a minute after Kyle Walker’s apparent foul on Raheem Sterling inside the area was waved aside by referee Andre Marriner.
Guardiola, however, refused to blame Marriner for their failure to win.
He told BT Sport: “We played very good, we missed a lot of chances and when this happens, you cannot win.
“It’s what has happened all season. We create more, concede a few.
“We are not going to achieve big targets because always in our performances like Everton [a 4-0 loss], like Chelsea [a 3-1 loss] we are not able to score so it’s impossible, we keep trying, we keep trying and we get nothing.
“First thing, we missed a lot of chances. We are playing against Tottenham and Tottenham is a top, top, top, top team.
“When you make chances, the referee doesn’t matter, but when you miss the chances people use the referees [as an excuse].”
