Man City boss Guardiola: We were fantastic for victory over Forest

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was delighted with their 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest.

Phil Foden and Erling Haaland had City up 2-0 early, but had to hang on in the second-half after Rodri was sent off for grabbing Morgan Gibbs-White around the throat.

Guardiola later said: "An exceptional game in the first half.

"Exceptional game in the second for our resilience and our work because we played, I would say, 51/52 minutes ten against eleven so it was not easy but we were fantastic.

"I thought the way we played in the first half was amazing so against a difficult side for the physicality the pace they have up front so yeah, recover for the next one."
