Guardiola: The fight for the championship is not over yet

The battle for the championship in the English Premier League is becoming increasingly intense. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Almost every match now feels like a final. In this situation, Manchester City's head coach Pep Guardiola shared his thoughts about the title race.

He admitted that the situation is difficult but emphasized that hope should not be lost. According to Guardiola, currently Manchester City is 6 points behind Arsenal.

He considers this gap serious, but in football, nothing is decided in advance: “We are 6 points behind. That is a big difference, but there are still 13 games ahead.

These games will decide a lot,” the coach said. Guardiola also noted that not only league matches but other factors throughout the season affect the title race.

Among them are cup matches, European competitions, a tight schedule, player fatigue, and possible injuries. Nevertheless, he expressed confidence in reducing the gap: “Closing the gap won't be easy, but there are opportunities.

We will try to get closer by following the rival.” Currently, Arsenal, led by Mikel Arteta, holds first place in the standings with 56 points. Manchester City is in second place with 50 points.

In third place is Aston Villa with 47 points. In conclusion, although a 6-point difference is significant, it is not decisive.

There are 13 rounds ahead, and these games will determine the fate of the championship. Every victory shortens the distance with the rival, and every lost point strengthens the opponent's morale.

The fight for the championship is still at its peak, and no team should rush to consider themselves the winner prematurely.
