That is why we are the champions for many years

Pep Guardiola heaped praise on Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi pre-match, hailing the Italian as one of the most influential managers of the last 20 years.

A point was also enough for the Seagulls to guarantee they will finish sixth in the table and secure a place in the Europa League next season. Phil Foden fired the English champions in front, but Brighton were well worthy of the point given to them by Julio Enciso’s stunning long-range strike. “Only 48 hours before they drank all the alcohol in Manchester,” said Guardiola. “Today they showed why they are the champions. “We were humble and run a lot. That is why we are the champions for many years, these players showed something special.” Guardiola heaped praise on Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi pre-match, hailing the Italian as one of the most influential managers of the last 20 years. The City coach showed his respect by restoring a number of star names to his side that missed Sunday’s 1-0 win over Chelsea to toast a fourth league title in five years. Erling Haaland returned among six changes and could have had a seventh hat-trick of the season inside half an hour. The towering Norwegian headed over Foden’s inviting cross on five minutes. Haaland then had a poor touch to blame for not beating Jason Steele when clean through on goal. At the third time of asking he took no chances as Haaland unselfishly squared with just Steele to beat for Foden to convert his 15th goal of the season. But after a slow start, Brighton soon began to live up to Guardiola’s billing as the champions were rocked back on their heels. “In every situation, even when the situation was difficult, we didn’t lose our style,” said De Zerbi. Danny Welbeck’s free-kick came crashing off the bar and Facundo Buonanotte should have done better with his finish after sauntering through the City defence. Kaoru Mitoma also saw an equaliser ruled out for handball. But there was no stopping Enciso’s leveller when it did come as the Paraguayan picked up Levi Colwill’s pass and smashed an effort into the top corner for his first goal at the Amex. Brighton had the ball in the net for a third time in the first 45 minutes moments later only for Welbeck to be flagged offside from Mitoma’s pass. The second period was less filled with goalmouth action despite the electric pace of the game. Haaland thought he finally had his 53rd goal of the season when he headed home Cole Palmer’s cross 15 minutes from time. But a VAR review caught out City’s prolific number nine as he had pulled Colwill’s shirt to create the space for a free header. Tempers briefly flared on the touchline after that decision with Guardiola shown a yellow card by the referee. There were also minor injury concerns for City ahead of the FA Cup and Champions League finals next month as Phil Foden, John Stones and Bernardo Silva were not moving freely as they were replaced in the second half. https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222502 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222503 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222504 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222505 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222506 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222507 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222508 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222509 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222510 https://d2l.msu.edu/d2l/eP/presentations/presentation_preview_popup.d2l?presId=222511 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/66f70845-3df9-4a0f-9539-bcc3dd74c81f https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/09e63759-7bdb-4442-a0e9-2ac9931011c4 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/a9b70c5a-8e5f-4893-bd75-8263c0d34f53 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/5a638bab-bb3f-4ca5-9e08-c6cf59c87a4b https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/e5ddb95f-e0c7-4af4-b0b8-45e6d530ff33 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/bb254f23-86ff-4b88-9f7c-7ab9b14cf289 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/d4af97c8-8765-47a3-ac19-75fb9e882a47 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/fbe55cd1-f2b2-429d-8a0d-2adb54d890f1 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/62c8a68a-b954-4c77-9cf6-1aa09c75631c https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/68135fa9-31d6-4c23-aca8-92fc53a74274 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/9a6b5622-0bbe-4643-abf5-9dcce2019958 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/8dda85e9-5e14-4703-a604-c14ac4222bd3 https://jsbin.com/vosezunata/edit?html,output https://jsfiddle.net/1gbjh3kr/ https://challonge.com/37cudscp https://www.vingle.net/posts/5921333 https://sway.office.com/BYslCPgPkRBX8RHb https://telegra.ph/dds-fdfs-fdsdfs-dfs-dfs-dfsfdsfsdfds-05-25 https://community.gaeamobile.com/forum/dragons-of-atlantis-heirs-of-the-dragon/general-discussion-ac/879534-dfdsf-dfsd-fsdfs-dfs-df-dfssdf-fdsdfs-fdffsd https://www.thebeachlittlehampton.co.uk/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/cf2f4a7d-b8b0-4c75-9557-4d664fb43bc9 https://www.eagleportland.com/group/mysite-231-group/discussion/5440d30f-b1c5-49cb-be7f-a58452ac3cd9 https://www.adoptaboston.com/group/mysite-200-group/discussion/eff79746-f337-41b5-9209-4722df275e36 https://paiza.io/projects/my453JX4KvlVZffd127O3w https://rextester.com/CCXK37109 https://sharetext.me/mzskl9kb7b https://0paste.com/463099 https://pastelink.net/3bfz34pr https://yamcode.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi https://jsitor.com/vSa4vg6dn9 https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/sample/a7778f21f129bd167e53c57f5f1973e776eec4656af7794269b4cd0bcbdc07e6 https://dev.bukkit.org/paste/d1a13a33 https://www.bankier.pl/forum/temat_sdffds-fdsfds-fsd-fdssd-fdfsfdsfdfdsd-ffdsfdsdfs-dfdfdfds,60731165.html https://rentry.co/764yg https://paste.thezomg.com/166680/05481516/ https://paste.chapril.org/?7b15f1ad9cb56348#2RbX44HSJUMfnAjweemokGkGKiXRrVHz8bi7MntwXUuF https://pasteio.com/x5ZFYsL6vO2l https://glot.io/snippets/glavi2qdzk https://justpaste.me/2Jjs1 https://foorum.naistekas.delfi.ee/list.php?28 https://hastebin.com/share/diwogawahe.bash https://paste.drhack.net/?32d786fb0442eb0a#7r51msDoUHxiZPLsjm7WHpuiR7M9zpRVCPLDYAvZvgLP https://codepen.io/migztce/pen/PoyLdwG https://etextpad.com/nejznkfrm1 http://pastie.org/p/42yxg3ZOE8vAvEkqV9EuEW https://jsbin.com/yavaxudezi/edit?html,css,js,output “We have to be careful for the players to arrive to the finals as best as possible,” added Guardiola.
