Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho has branded their draw with Sunderland a "complete disaster".
The two dropped points leaves City's title challenge in ruins as, even though they have a game in hand, they now trail second-place Chelsea by four points and leaders Liverpool by six points.
"The whole team is disappointed about the result, especially in the way we played. The result was a complete disaster for us," Fernandinho said.
"We started well and scored the goal, but for 50 minutes after that we lost control of the game and they played better than us. Right at the end we tried to score another goal but it wasn't enough."
