Man City boss Pep Guardiola: We must accept VAR

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was left frustrated after being denied victory over Tottenham by VAR.

City were celebrating after Gabriel Jesus appeared to have scored in injury time, but the goal was ruled out because the ball had brushed Aymeric Laporte's arm in the build-up.

"We have to accept it," said Guardiola after the game ended 2-2.

"It's tough because we scored a goal late on. But ask VAR people, not me."

Raheem Sterling had headed dominant City ahead in the first half, but Erik Lamela immediately equalised against the run of play with a strike from distance.

Sergio Aguero flicked home Kevin de Bruyne's cross before Substitute Lucas Moura nodded in seconds after coming on as a substitute to pull Spurs level again.
