Man City boss Guardiola: We must forget Palace result and focus on CWC

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says they must not dwell on their 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace.

City were held by Palace courtesy of a 95th minute penalty converted by Michael Olise.

They now leave for Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, for a Club World Cup semifinal against Urawa Red Diamonds.

Guardiola said: “It would be better, a six or seven hour flight with the result and just three days to recover and then three days for a potential final.

“Otherwise, the semi-final, of course. But it is what it is. Now we are down and we will lift immediately and as quickly as possible and go to compete there."
