Ipswich Town manager Gary O'Neil was left proud of his players following a narrow 3-2 defeat at Premier League leaders Manchester City, but revealed that two things in the game really irked him.
Ipswich Town manager Gary O'Neil revealed that conceding Manchester City's second goal and multiple incorrect offside flags were the two things that most annoyed him following a 3-2 defeat at the Etihad Stadium. Phil Foden opened the scoring for Manchester City before Daizen Maeda equalized. Erling Haaland subsequently scored twice, while Zian Flemming converted a 90th-minute penalty for Ipswich.
Despite the defeat, O'Neil expressed immense pride in his players' commitment across 102 minutes of play against the Premier League leaders. However, he lamented fine margins, emphasizing that conceding a worked-on set piece and losing momentum to incorrect assistant referee calls proved decisive.
