Bournemouth manager Gary O'Neil believes his side put up a good performance against Manchester City but were ruthlessly punished for first-half mistakes.
City continued to heap pressure on Premier League leaders Arsenal on Saturday, cruising to a 4-1 win at the Vitality Stadium. Pep Guardiola's side were 3-0 up and flying by half-time, pouncing twice on mistakes in possession from the home side to see both Julian Alvarez and Phil Foden net alongside Erling Haaland.
The Blues grabbed a fourth when Chris Mepham deflected Alvarez's shot into his own net before a hint of complacency allowed the Cherries to pull one back and create a couple more chances themselves - an issue Guardiola will be far from happy to see.
