Pep Guardiola said his team “forgot to play” after they gave up a lead to lose 2-1 at Brighton. It was Manchester City’s second defeat of the season, the first time they have lost two of their first three league games in 21 years.
City had taken the lead through Erling Haaland and seemed to have the game under control when the Brighton manager, Fabian Hürzeler, made a quadruple substitution after an hour and levelled from a James Milner penalty seven minutes later.
