Manchester City finds itself in troubled waters after a 4-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday evening. The loss leaves the Citizens in a precarious position in the Champions League group stage.
To secure a spot in the play-offs, Pep Guardiola’s men must now defeat Club Bruges on the final matchday.
Adding to their woes, City may have to face this decisive match without one of their key defensive pillars : Ruben Dias. The player, who had recently returned from injury, was substituted at halftime and appeared visibly uncomfortable on the bench. In the post-match press conference, Pep Guardiola confirmed the substitution, stating, “He was not feeling well.”
This development compounds the challenges for Guardiola and his squad as they attempt to salvage their Champions League campaign in what has become a critical moment of the season.
