[27'] CHANCE! Man City's brightest move so far sees a long ball brought down by Rico Lewis, with Erling Haaland finding Bernardo Silva out wide... but his pass towards Ilkay Gundogan is behind the German, and his effort is poor and wide. 0-0.

Pep Guardiola: “They played really good; Mateo [Kovacic] was brilliant, Rico [Lewis] as well, and Bernardo [Silva] when he played in that position. They played really good!”
Eddie Howe: “Pep [Guardiola] is someone I really admire. I admire how he plays the game, how he sees the game. For me, he is an innovator, he consistently takes the game to new ways.
As a coach you've got to watch and understand his Man City team and try to find solutions - it's not easy.
I think he's really good for the English game, the British game, having him here makes the league better.
Our challenge is to get closer and closer, or try and get closer and closer to teams like ManCity, and they're the benchmark.”

Pep Guardiola on Eddie Howe & @Newcastle_united: “I said to him how I admire him and for the way they approached the game, in high-pressing, so direct.
They have a lot of legs with [Jacob] Murphy, [Anthony] Gordon, [Harvey] Barnes - we controlled them really, really well in the most part of the game, especially when we play so, so high. Bruno [Guimaraes], and Joelinton, the physicality, [Sandro] Tonali, and after the central defenders so high. It's such a difficult team.“

Pep Guardiola: “@Newcastle_united last season struggled a little bit for just one reason; a lot of injuries. Otherwise that team competes really well.
(On Eddie Howe) A manager for many years, a lot of times, and never creates a problem in press conferences, always polite for opponents, like we try to do as a Club.
I admit that we would like to win, we draw, they deserve it as well, and we both take the point.”
