'Don't want us to win': City star's stunning ref rant after Pep doubles down on PL conspiracy theory
"I know we won too much and the people don't want us to win but the referee has to be neutral and for me honestly, it's not fair,"
"At the end, when everything is finished, we are frustrated because it's so clear the foul. He kicked the leg and of course with the push of the action on the ball, the ball goes in."
"We have to pay attention to these little things otherwise it's going to be difficult for everyone because this league is like this - it's about small details and everything counts, so I think today is a very tough day for us in this sense."
"If a central defender does it to a striker, it's a penalty. The game was well played and sometimes for long balls and second balls you miss it. We would prefer not to have the transition but an emotional issue for the first goal that the referee conceded to Spurs and after that the momentum is difficult to control."
Manchester City surrendered a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 at Tottenham after Dominic Solanke's goal was allowed despite an apparent foul on Marc Guehi, and he later scored with a scorpion kick. Rodri demanded referees be neutral and said the foul was clear, warning that small decisions decide the league. Pep Guardiola criticised the first goal, calling it effectively a penalty if roles were reversed, and said the decision shifted momentum; he was booked for protesting. The result leaves City six points behind Arsenal and fuels growing frustration over recent refereeing decisions perceived to have gone against them.
