The story in brief
7-second readManchester City fell to their second consecutive defeat in the Premier League with their 1-0 defeat to Brighton at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
From the source
Manchester City fell to their second consecutive defeat in the Premier League with their 1-0 defeat to Brighton at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. Saturday’s match followed nearly the same pattern as City’s 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa at Villa Park the weekend before.
A defensive error cost City dearly and they played catch-up from that point onwards. Like the loss to Aston Villa, Enzo Maresca’s side created more than enough chances to at least take a point against Brighton but it wasn’t to be.
Looking at Manchester City’s performance against Brighton, there is plenty to fix for Enzo Maresca to get his team firing once again. A familiar theme saw Brighton gifted the lead at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
