“We Were Not Good Enough” – Guardiola Reacts As Arsenal End Man City’s Title Run

Spanish tactician Pep Guardiola has said he will make a decision on his future at the end of the season, following Manchester City’s loss of the Premier League title to Arsenal.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Reports about a possible departure for the City manager circulated on Monday night, just hours before his side travelled to face AFC Bournemouth. The speculation intensified after City were held to a 1-1 draw, a result that officially confirmed they could no longer overtake Arsenal in the title race.

The draw left Arsenal with an unassailable lead and secured their first Premier League title since 2004.

Guardiola, however, stressed that any decision regarding his future would only be made after discussions with Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak.

“I could say that I have one more year of contract and with the conversations I have had for many years, always from my experience when you announce, whatever you announce, during the competition, it is a bad, bad result,” Guardiola told Sky Sports after the match.

“And as you understand, the first person I have to talk to is my chairman because we both decided that when we finish the season we will sit and we will talk. It is as simple as that and after we will make the decision.”

City will end their league campaign at home against Aston Villa, with Guardiola insisting his focus remains on finishing the season strongly.

“Listen, I have one more year of contract,” he said.

“I will not tell you a decision here because I have to speak with my chairman, my players and my staff. Right now my only focus is to help the team finish as high as possible.”

Following Arsenal’s title confirmation, Guardiola also congratulated Mikel Arteta and his squad, praising their achievement.

“On behalf of Man City, congratulations to Arsenal, Mikel and all the backroom staff. They deserve it,” he said.

He added, “I’m the happiest man on the planet to be at this club. It is extraordinary.”

The football utilized by Diego Maradona to score his controversial “Hand of God” goal against England during the 1986 World Cup has been auctioned in the United States for £2.5m.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The Adidas Azteca ball brought in $3.3m via Heritage Auctions on Saturday, which fell short of the estimated £7.3m ($10m) projection from experts.

Key details of the historic item and match include:

  • The Match: The ball was in play for the entirety of Argentina’s 2-1 quarter-final victory against England at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.

  • The Infamous Goal: Maradona scored both of Argentina’s goals, with his first involving him punching the ball past England goalkeeper Peter Shilton—an infraction missed by the referee. Post-match, Maradona famously attributed it to “a little with the head of Maradona and a little with the hand of God”.

  • Goal of the Century: Minutes later, the Argentina captain scored a legendary solo goal, weaving past five outfield players and rounding Shilton.

  • Prior Ownership: The ball was kept for over three decades by Tunisian referee Ali Bin Nasser, who officiated the match. He initially sold it in 2022 for £1.74m ($2.37m), though a subsequent attempt to sell it in 2023 did not meet the reserve price.

  • Related Memorabilia: This auction follows the 2022 sale of Maradona’s Argentina shirt from the same match, which fetched £7.1m.
