Manchester City fought hard to secure a win against Club Brugge as they claimed a spot in the playoffs.
Guardiola’s men needed a win after losing 4-2 to French side PSG last week in their previous UEFA Champions League game.
They need a second-half comeback to get a 3-1 win after the visitors took the lead in the first half.

The Man City boss has expressed frustration about his team.
As it happened
Pep Guardiola made two changes to the Manchester City side that beat Chelsea on Saturday, knowing anything but a win against Club Brugge will result in elimination from the Champions League.
Man City, as always, dominated the game but failed to get past Club Brugge’s defence. Just as the first half nears its end, the visitors shocked Guardiola’s men with a thunderous strike by Super Eagles star Raphael Onyedika.
The host came into the second half and scored two goals in quick succession from a Mateo Kovacic strike before an own goal gave them the lead.

Guardiola’s men added the third goal to seal the win after a nice movement from Salvinho ended into the back of the net.
The win put the Citizens in 22nd position, which was enough for them to qualify for the UCL playoffs.
