Pep Guardiola Forced to ask for forgiveness Steven Gerrard. secretly and publicly. Two days ago, he was asked if an open investigation against Manchester City would tarnish their titles, I was reminded of the 2014 episode in which the unfortunate slip of a ‘red’ (at the time) midfielder caused a defeat by Liverpool that put the title on a silver platter.. His unfortunate remarks and the criticism he received made him think and apologize for remembering that moment. Do you remember what happened?
slip story
It was the 36th round of the Premier League when Liverpool and Chelsea Faces seen at Anfield. Liverpool was three points ahead of Manchester City and five on Chelsea, their rivals that afternoon. The draw was worth it to stay at the top of the league, but everything got complicated in the last stage of the first part.
Guardiola’s sincere apology to Gerrard: “I’m ashamed of myself.”
With 0-0 in the tagp.m., on the brink of half-time, Sakho handed the ball back to Steven Gerrard. An easy, comfortable and pressure-free ball for the captain to start playing. But everything got complicated. Gerard lost control and then slipped, so Demba Ba caught him in the turbulent river. The Chelsea striker took advantage of the error to control the ball and beat Mignolet with all the coolness in the world.
They ask Pep if the investigation will tarnish City’s titles…and he remembers Gerrard’s gaffe
It was the first two goals Liverpool conceded in that match, which ended in a 0-2 loss. A misstep that City knew how to capitalize on to snatch first place from the Reds and end up winning the Premier League.
